Abstract

The m3architecture practice in Brisbane combines experience with youth: in practice now for a decade, all four partners remain under forty. Mark Taylor describes how in its work the office has developed a ‘social and cultural agenda and site-driven approach’ that eschews the oversimplification of a house style while motivating the architects to continue questioning every project on a first-principles basis.
