Philip Cox: An Australian Architecture

Philip Cox is one of the most significant and influential architects in Australia’s history. This new book forms a comprehensive documentation of his many and varied projects, as well as providing an overview of his life and times.

Cox came to prominence early in his career with several finely crafted and structurally innovative buildings, and his subsequent fusion of architecture with engineering created a highly distinctive form of structural expression. His white steel buildings symbolised Australia’s emerging sense of identity in the 1980s and 1990s, and they had an unprecedented global impact.
