点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project addresses two significant productivity barriers facing Australia’s architectural practices; designing in spatially distributed and culturally diverse teams. While design practices are central to sustaining Australia’s creative export sector, growing concerns associated with online, multilingual design teams have been identified. Directly responding to Australia’s COVID-19 recovery plans, this research seeks to develop new knowledge about the cognitive, social and technical factors that shape the effectiveness of online international design teamwork. Its goal is to leverage the opportunities provided through technological advances and multicultural practices, to remove barriers to design productivity and enhance creativity.
