"With some thought, I believe that one can discover an architecture that responds to its place, culture and ecological demands, incorporating appropriate, responsible, technological solutions. To achieve this position, as designers we must not only consider what architecture is, but also ask what an appropriate and responsible architecture is for our culture, our time and our place." - Glenn Murcutt AO, Australian architect

The inaugural Murcutt Symposium was held in Sydney, with house tours, talks and social events spanning three days 11-13 September.
A highly interactive afternoon session led by 2010 Gold Medal winning architects Lindsay and Kerry Clare, Ché Wall and former Environment Commissioner, Rod Simpson, questioned whether our current planning and building regulatory settings are really achieving gains in the race to decarbonise our buildings. Limits to natural ventilation and drive towards airtightness can lead to buildings that overheat in Australian conditions unless reliant on mechanical ventilation to avoid the unintended consequences like poorer indoor air quality and mould.
