  • We do not create the work. I believe we, in fact, are discoverers.

    Glenn Murcutt (2002). “The Pritzker Architecture Prize, 2002: Presented to Glenn Marcus Murcutt”
  • I'm very interested in buildings that adapt to changes in climatic conditions according to the seasons, buildings capable of responding to our physical and psychological needs in the way that clothing does. We don't turn on the air-conditioning as we walk through the streets in high summer. Instead, we change the character of the clothing by which we are protected. Layering and changeability: this is the key.

  • Life is not about maximizing everything, it's about giving something back - like light, space, form, serenity, joy. You have to give something back.

    Life   Light   Space  
  • I cannot pursue my architecture without considering the minimization of energy consumption, simple and direct technologies, a respect for site, climate, place and culture. Together, these disciplines represent for me a fantastic platform for experimentation and expression. Of particular importance is the junction of the rational and the poetic resulting hopefully in works that resonate and belong to where they reside.

  • Architecture is not created, it is discovered – the hand will find solutions before the mind can even comprehend them.

  • Layering and changeability: this is the key, the combination that is worked into most of my buildings. Occupying one of these buildings is like sailing a yacht; you modify and manipulate its form and skin according to seasonal conditions and natural elements, and work with these to maximize the performance of the building.
