As long-time supporters of the Future Leaders Series, Taylor is proud to champion the next generation of industry voices. We were thrilled to see our graduate Site Engineer Jade Biazzo take the stage for Team Urban Sprawl, delivering a bold and heartfelt argument for community-first planning and strategic growth.
The Density Debate: Building Up or Building Out?
Should our cities reach for the sky with tall, dense living, or spread out wide with urban sprawl? That was the fiery question at the heart of the Property Council of Australia’s Future Leaders Series event, proudly sponsored by Taylor.

“The future isn’t coming—it’s being built right now. Bradfield City already has its first building standing. And it was delivered by Taylor.””
In true Taylor tradition, the evening featured our iconic debate paddles used to vote, cheer, and challenge ideas. And yes, the golden paddle was back! Hidden under one lucky guest’s chair, it came with 10 bonus points in the final vote, a cheeky twist we’ve proudly kept alive for years.
Congratulations to the winning team: Density, and a huge thank you to the Property Council of Australia for hosting a great night of ideas, energy, and future-focused thinking.
