"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
Join us as we discover architecture that responds to its place, culture, and ecological demands. We share the work of Glenn Murcutt; hear from those who have worked, taught and learned from him, and gain insight into the mind of one of the world's most respected living architects.

In a truly magnificent arc that spans about 10,000 years, the UKs Niall McLaughlin weaves together 10 projects with 10 yarns drawn from characters from Australia’s red centre.
From the first signs of settlement in the neolithic period, to buildings designed to dissolve in the English landscape, Niall shares a visual essay on the structural beauty of a rugby scrum and a truly wild tale from the 9th C of a ship suspended in the air that inspired a place of quiet spiritual reflection.
According to Niall, the first houses gave us a history. They encouraged us to believe that we could jointly invest in more ambitious activities whose returns were not immediately obvious. This expanded horizon transformed human culture. It also gave us our present conception of architecture, which is, above all, a representation of temporal depth.
Niall McLaughlin joined fellow architects Marina Tabassum, Rick Joy, Marusa Zorec, Peter Stutchbury and four others in a desert odyssey over three weeks in Australia’s rich and remote desert landscape; before speaking at an event called Stories of Earth: Echoes in Architecture, hosted by the Murcutt Foundation in September 2024.
