Edition Office is an architecture studio based in Melbourne, founded by Kim Bridgland and Aaron Roberts in 2016. Through the execution of its built work and research, the practice seeks to create an ongoing series of figures, relics, stories and relationships; all continuing a greater investigation into material, spatial and cultural practice. The studio has a great respect and admiration for a very diverse Australian landscape, and a considered awareness for the historical conflict that exists within all its terrains. This type of thinking and understating of place and landscape as a space of both contestation and shared connection – fraught with its own historical, political and mythical undertones – permeates into the very centre of the work at Edition Office.

Wominjeka (Welcome). We acknowledge the Yaluk-ut Weelam as the traditional custodians of the land on which we meet. Yaluk-ut Weelam means ‘people of the river camp’ and is connected with the coastal land at the head of Port Phillip Bay, extending from the Werribee River to Mordialloc. The Yaluk-ut Weelam are part of the Boon Wurrung, one of the five major language groups of the greater Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to the land, their ancestors and their elders—past, present and to the future.
