What broader trends in international diplomacy does the success of Australia's new embassy design suggest, and how might this influence the design of future embassies?

The success of the Washington embassy design suggests a future trend in international diplomacy, where embassies become active instruments of cultural diplomacy, projecting national identity and fostering stronger international relationships. This approach moves beyond symbolic representation to create buildings that are welcoming, engaging, and reflective of a nation's unique culture and values. Embassies like the one in Jakarta and Bangkok exemplify this trend.
