APDL series: Side Project with Peter Rich

The APDL lecture series uncovers and explores the Side Project and the inspiration that exists outside the world of design.

Shane Thompson (2012 Queensland Smart Design Fellow) asks leading design thinkers about the projects they undertake outside their primary work practice, how these extra-curricular activities transfer across disciplines, and how they enrich all sides of life – both work and play.

After the event, take the opportunity to discuss your own project during option post event drinks in the APDL lounge, tickets $15 (incl refreshments).

Peter Rich (Peter Rich Architects, South Africa)

Listen to the audio recording of this event.

Peter's distinctive body of work is testament to a lifetime of commitment to the creation of a uniquely African architecture. He has been a pioneer in the documentation of the spatial and aesthetic elements of African tribal settlements and developed an architectural vocabulary that fuses Modernist principles with local tribal convention and sensitivity to material and environment.  His practice is distinguished by a deep understanding of context achieved through sustained research into local conditions and close collaboration with communities.

The APDL lecture series is supported by Arts Queensland in the Department of Science, Information Technology, Innovation and the Arts and proudly endorsed by QUEENSLANDERSIGN™, an initiative of the Queensland Design Council.  

This event will also be live streamed.
