iredale pedersen hook are an emerging Australian architecture practice with offices in Perth and Melbourne and a rapidly expanding diverse body of work scattered throughout Australia. From the winery region of Victoria's Yarra Valley, to the desert of the North Kimberly region, through the suburbs of Melbourne and Perth, from the urban centre of Sydney to the far reaches of Christmas Island the projects are as diverse and eclectic as the landscape they occupy. Each piece of architecture seeks to embody a unique design response of innovation and delight. There is no house style. If necessary the works can be gathered in relation to their geographical location, but the projects actually belong to a collection of thematic concerns that evolve and develop. The firm is dedicated to the pursuit of appropriate design of effective sustainable buildings with a responsible environmental and social agenda. The architecture of iredale pedersen hook emerges from a landscape that is dominated by the horizon. In Australia the desert and the ocean operate as constant counterpoints to the occupation of land by built objects. Our work shares an understanding of an edge condition that is described by remote locations, incredible sites and the centre of the peripheral.
