The Architecture Symposium: Out of Office
Stories of experimentation and lessons from site. Curated by Clare Kennedy and John Ellway.
Lucinda McLean is a founding director of NMBW Architecture Studio, a Melbourne-based practice established in 1997. The design methodology of the practice is place-based with a strong focus on materiality and cultural experience.
The NMBW team's attention to the relationships between things allows them to strategically link large and small actions in each environment, focus on both buildings and landscapes and create holistic, inclusive and culturally deep design responses. On the ground research and experience is a vital part of the design process, and intricate working with existing conditions carries through all stages of projects.
