Taglietti: Life in Design

Discover the world of Enrico Taglietti (1926–2019), a visionary whose design principles shaped modern Australian architecture. Celebrating the centenary of Taglietti’s birth, Taglietti: Life in Design explores the life, philosophy, and legacy of one of Australia’s most original architects.

By revisiting Taglietti’s life and work, the exhibition positions him as a truly global architect whose career spanned Europe, Africa, America, and Australia. It also foregrounds his deep engagement with local communities – work that continues to resonate today, particularly in much-loved projects such as Giralang Primary School Canberra, St Kilda Public Library Melbourne, and St Anthony Parish Church in Sydney.

At a time when speed and efficiency often dominate design and construction, Taglietti’s work reminds us of the enduring value of civic life and human scale.
