Peddle Thorp Architects and Sustainable Built Environments received a commendation for their finalist listed entry in the Proposition 2065 design competition. The competition invited all architects and anonymous participants to develop solutions for a specific Australian site in St. Leonard’s in Sydney adjacent to the train station and a major road intersection. The entries were judged according to the balance of the design potential of the site and economic feasibility of commercial development.

Antoine Damery, sent us his design for the Peddle Thorp Architects submission for the international competition for the thematic pavilion of the Expo 2012 in Yeosu, Korea.
The pavilion is prototypical architecture, drawing from the multidisciplinary source of product design- urban planning-architecture and naval design.

Its ingenuity will encourage multidisciplinary problem solving through sustainable solutions.
