Emerging Architects Announced
The NSW Architects Registration Board is delighted to announce the three emerging architects from Sydney who will be participating in The Architecture Foundation exchange programme in London from 17 – 21 October 2011.
The programme will celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Byera Hadley Travelling Scholarships and follows on from successful Architecture Foundation exchange programmes in Italy, Turkey, Norway, Poland, and Portugal.
The aim of these exchange programmes is to identify, exchange and promote the best new architects from both countries through developing networks, dialogue and cultural exchange that allow for the sharing of new ideas and new practices.
Andrew Burns, Matthew Chan and Hannah Tribe will act as ambassadors for the architectural scene in Sydney taking part in a schedule of coordinated activities including public lectures, workshops, studio and site visits, along with other networking opportunities.
The exchange will take the theme Every Day Extreme, highlighting the work of a rising generation of architects and practitioners who are responding to the pressing need to adapt our buildings and cities to meet new environmental pressures.
“We are thrilled that The Architecture Foundation will host this engaging and stimulating program that reflects the underpinning philosophy of the Byera Hadley Travelling Scholarship, and is a highlight of our celebrations of the 60th anniversary of the first Scholarships being awarded.” Kate Doyle, Registrar, NSW Architects Registration Board.
“We at the Architecture Foundation are delighted to announce this, the latest initiative within our ongoing programme providing international opportunities for emerging talent. Excitingly, our partnership with the New South Wales Architects Registration Board will allow us to expand the reach of our New Architects exchange to its furthest geographic reach to date.” Sarah Ichioka, Director, The Architecture Foundation.
