As co-founding director of Liminal Studio, a creatively agile architecture and design practice, Peta is passionate about expanding benchmarks and firmly believes that in creating new design frontiers, collaboration across broader disciplines drives new thinking and empowers communities.
Driven by the ethos that many minds make enlightened work, Liminal Studio brings together creative thinkers, experienced managers, inventive designers, emerging talent and architecture leaders at the top of their game who are drawn to connect and share experiences, knowledge, ideas and passions. Under the identities of Liminal Architecture, Spaces, Objects and Ideation, Liminal’s breadth of work spans all scales in architecture, interiors, scenography, furniture, design thinking and object design.
Key to Liminal’s philosophy is curating opportunities that spark the imaginative potential of a project that is tuned to making a positive difference. As a result, people and place underpin Liminal’s approach to shaping their culture and processes.
From this collaborative approach have come projects recognised globally and embraced by their communities such as the performing arts and cultural centre, The Hedberg, the design for Archipelago Productions, The Bleeding Tree, the Coastal Pavilions at Freycinet, The Magic Box a travelling whisky tasting installation, the design for Dancenorth’s Dust, the merging of ancient traditions and contemporary design through the coffee table muylatina and the Glenorchy Health Centre, focused on wellbeing and galvanizing disadvantaged communities.
Peta’s leadership in creative practice and culture has seen appointments on national and international award juries, advisory councils, participation in forums and conferences and advocacy roles in architecture and the shaping of cultural policy.
