When asked what drove him to the field of architecture, Peter Stutchbury can sum it up in one word: nature. “I think I had an affinity with natural phenomenon and I felt I could connect with that through architecture,” he says. “Be it spiritual or be it physical or emotional, any of those qualities, it was a genuine sort of pursuit of connection with our origins.” The Australian architect, who was awarded the Australian Institute of Architects' gold medal in 2015, is renowned for his ability to connect projects with the surrounding landscape and for his commitment to sustainability. “I think sustainability becomes a very big word and it ends up in respect,” he explains. “If you're able to respect all aspects of living, then your building responds to that accordingly.”
While Stutchbury is best known for his residential projects in Australia, he has designed homes and public spaces around the world, from Japan to Israel. While each project shares a common approach, they boast remarkably different designs. “The reason they're different is very, very easy to explain,” he says. “A desert is not a tropical rain forest. It's not a sclerophyll open forest. It's not a coastal landscape or heathland. And so all those buildings are on different sites. They couldn't possibly be the same typology from my point of view. They have to engage with their site physically, emotionally, spiritually. They have to have qualities of that site brought into them. Otherwise, you'll feel like a remote object.” Read on to discover more about the architect’s captivating work.
