It is with great respect and deep sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Brian Suters AM, the founder of Suters Architects and a distinguished figure in Australian architecture. Brian established Suters Architects, setting a foundation of innovation, integrity, and commitment to public architecture that continues to define our practice. His vision and leadership shaped an enduring legacy across education, civic, cultural, and community projects throughout Australia.

These two major awards serve as a testament to ARCH's unwavering dedication to sustainable practices and its significant role in advancing community-focused architecture since its foundation in 1958.

ARCH is AWF's newest network partner – Architects without Frontiers (AWF) mobilises the resources of the Australian design profession to assist communities in need through delivering built projects and practical work to overcome the causes of poverty and improving education, gender equality, health and environmental quality.
