Originally hosted in Melbourne in 2021, Finding Infinity returned to Sydney’s Powerhouse Museum, highlighting over fifty designers, architects, and technologists' solutions to transform Sydney's resource consumption. Led by Finding Infinity’s Sydney Director (and the former Deputy Lord Mayor of Sydney), Jess Miller, the project paired creative studios with developers and companies to propose innovative solutions that required minimal policy change. 

Jess Miller explained, "It's only in the implementation of new ideas and ways of doing things that you create a practical understanding of the challenges and can in turn provide insight to decision- and policy-makers whose job it is to enable us to achieve the targets that they so often talk about, and in a way that invests government money into a public good." 

The diverse projects included, amongst many others, The Last Pub on Earth, which envisioned brewing beer from recycled wastewater, a No Waste Fit Out Circular Shop, solutions for energy storage in apartments, and The Forever Car, aimed at converting combustion cars to electric.

It’s encouraging to see so many different companies banding together with designers to find and prototype solutions for the public to be inspired by.
