HASSELL TALKS: Housing futures with Jeremy Schluter and Michael McCormack

In Europe, Australia, the US and Asia - there’s not enough quality housing stock to go around, and limited affordable choice in the types of homes available.

The current generation of renters and buyers are connected, design-savvy and socially aware. They are driving the demand for homes that challenge traditional models of living.

They’ve also lived through the pandemic, so they need to be able to work comfortably from home with a supportive community around them. They desire access to green space, and amenities and convenience. They want quality homes suited to a changing climate.

The market’s crying out for change. There are quality alternatives emerging, turning traditional approaches to housing on its head and the industry and market are now mature enough to support those trying to make a difference.

To explore this we invited Michael McCormack co-founder behind small but mighty development firm Milieu to join our residential sector co-lead, Jeremy Schluter.

Michael is a passionate advocate for improved urban design and is also Deputy Chair and a member of the Board at the Centre for Contemporary Photography. Milieu are a certified B Corp™, a global community of for-profit leaders who pledge to use business as a force for good.

Milieu’s reputation for crafting beautifully conceived apartments driven by progressive urban design and exemplary architecture, such as Otter Place has resulted in a following in Melbourne and Sydney, with Milieu’s buildings gaining fans, awards and accolades. Just don’t call them a ​‘luxury developer’!
