Last week’s FuturePlace – Living Sectors Summit in Sydney brought together visionary leaders shaping the future of urban living. In our latest edition of #InnovationInsights, we explore the dynamic growth of the Living Sector and the transformative potential of Volumetric Modular Construction (VMC). This issue features key takeaways from Steven Mann, FREECITY’s Chief Strategy Officer's case study. Steven shared strategic insights on how modular innovation is unlocking new opportunities across Purpose-Built Student Accommodation (PBSA), Build-to-Rent, Co-living and Affordable Housing. We’re also proud to spotlight Felipe Miranda, Director at Cox Architecture and Australia’s leading Modular Architect. Felipe presented COX’s pioneering work designing FREECITY’s first three modular PBSA buildings—an inspiring showcase of how VMC is redefining speed, sustainability, and scalability in urban development.

Great first day at the Living Sectors Summit! As a pioneer in Volumetric Modular Construction (VMC) in Australia it was great to hear about the interest in Modular Construction at the summit. Our Chief Strategy Officer Steven Mann delivered an engaging case study demonstrating how VMC can be a game changer for the living sector by significantly reducing construction timeframes, reducing waste, and delivering high quality buildings that are quieter, cleaner and far less disruptive to local communities during construction. FREECITY is proud be a gold sponsor of the summit and our team look forward to todays program. #innovatingfutureliving Space Labs Australia

Burgeoning developer FREECITY is the latest to take on the booming North Sydney apartment market, one of the most popular suburbs with off the plan buyers.
