Outstanding Faculty Researcher Award, University of New South Wales 2007.

John Yu Fellowship, University of New South Wales 2003.

Peter鈥檚 work examines the relationship of the individual to the collective in the making of modern society; decorum as a principle relevant to understanding institutions and buildings; space defined in terms of its fluidity or limits; the relationship of ornament to structure; and the human body valued as a type worthy of imitation in architecture. The significance of these topics is illuminated through historical research, involving the interpretation of the buildings, cities and architectural treatises from antiquity to the present.听

My Teaching

Areas of specialisation: architectural history, theory and design.

Peter鈥檚 teaching focuses on past buildings and treatises, as well as their interpretation in contemporary contexts. His teaching methods favour open learning, as well as an approach to design that encompasses both respect for the past and the need for invention.

Peter is available to supervise student research projects.听
