Richard J. Goodwin

[3] In practicing this agenda, he tests the functional and aesthetic boundaries of public space through both art and architecture.

The studio enquires into the way patterns of inhabiting and moving through the cities weaves a level of political richness into the fabric of architecture.

The research project argued for 'Porosity' as a way of describing an urban experience which turns the building inside out and de-emphasises the obsession with facades.

The ARC awarded Richard Goodwin again in 2009 with a Linkage Grant to develop the research further through sensors and gaming engine technologies in collaboration with Russell Lowe and the Emergency Information Coordination Unit (EICU) run under the NSW Department of Lands.

[7] Goodwin is the author of Porosity: the Architecture of Invagination[8] and has published many articles on issues of public space,[9] and chapters in collected works.
