Architecture Speaks: Andrew Waugh – Waugh Thistleton Architects
Architecture Speaks! lecture series invites six professionals in the field of architecture to share their thoughts and ideas on current trends in architecture.
“Waugh Thistleton Architects have used solid wood on a large scale. Their works are an example of how buildings can be dismantled, reassembled and recycled”, describes Jenni Reuter, curator of Architecture Speaks!
Andrew Waugh is a Founding Director of Waugh Thistleton Architects, a practice dedicated to delivering beautiful buildings and places that acknowledge their effect on the environment. He is a world-renowned spokesperson for low impact architecture and innovative construction, and lobbies and lectures internationally, communicating the urgent need for change to mitigate the climate crisis. A pivotal player in the global shift towards renewable, bio-based materials, Andrew’s innovative approach to design has been acknowledged by many awards including The RIBA President’s Award for Research and a Stirling Prize nomination in 2018. The practice is currently engaged on both research and design projects throughout Europe and North America.
