My guest this time comes from Australia.
Peter Stutchbury is one of the most respected Australian architects, aprofessor and a mentor at the Glenn Murcutt Master Class and at studentmasterclasses around the world — and the man who turned my life upside down.
Because we already know his architecture, what interested me this time was above all what shaped him into the person and the architect he is.
The Australian bush and the family farm.Three years of being bullied at school. Papua New Guinea, Africa, and work with Indigenous communities. Rick Leplastrier, Glenn Murcutt and Uncle Max.
Issey Miyake.
And, at the end, the future of the profession in the age of artificial intelligence.
"I think in reflection, you'll see that whatever you compose out of this will be more about humanity than it will be about architecture," Peter Stutchbury told me as our conversation drew to a close.
