Glenn Murcutt

the long version

Glenn Murcutt's singular status in contemporary architecture is well deserved. Respected and admired for his innovative designs, Murcutt is the first Australian architect whose work has attracted international attention. His work, intimately linked to its landscape and to the Australian vernacular, is clearly in the modern tradition and strongly responsive to current environmental concerns. This book documents this impassioned architect's body of work, and offers a critical look at the background and influences that helped shape his architectural philosophy and independent style.
