sanDra LosCHKe
Associate professor and director of
Architecture Design and Technology at the
University of Sydney.
Sandra Loschke’s research investigates links
between aesthetics, design and technology
in museum and exhibition architecture from
the 1920s to the present, and focuses on
how these linkages played a significant role
in progressing new disciplinary paradigms,
which expanded the culture of architectural
knowledge at its interfaces with art and science.
Her work includes case studies, design projects,
prototyping and exhibitions and endeavours to
engage theoretical and historical frameworks
with the reality of contemporary architectural
design practice.
As an architect, her projects include
award-winning cultural buildings such as
the Pinkothek der Moderne (Museum of
Contemporary Art) in Munich for Stephan
Braunfels and the British Film Institute at
Waterloo/London for Avery Associates. Her
own work has been exhibited at the Venice
Architecture Biennale and subsequent
exhibitions in Singapore, Bangkok, Kuala
Lumpur, Sydney amongst others.

Jean GraHam
Director, Winter Architecture.
Just over two years ago, Jean Graham
established Winter Architecture, whereby
she considers herself secondary to the practice,
straying away from the fulfillment of a self
titled practice. Instead, Graham has elected to
translate the Tuiet introspective sitespecific
qualities of winter – the season – into an
Architectural dictum.
With varied budgets and a range of client
backgrounds, Graham and Winter Architecture
have opened up the possibility of architecture
to a number of clients who did not feel
architecture was accessible to them, due to
low budgets di̇cult site restrictions and the
desire to build themselves.
