"One of the things I'm really keen on is looking at different levels of housing. How do we start to solve our housing shortage problems in Australia? To be clear, that's a worldwide problem – but how do we do it in a smart way of doing beautiful homes for people, but at different tiers that they can afford? So in some ways, stop talking about it and time to actually do something about it."
