Favourite things - Matt Gibson

I have a lot of "favourite things" when it comes to buildings and design. 

Here is one of my favourite melbourne architects - Matt Gibson.  He is often featured in House magazine.

There are several things I like about his designs.  Starting with his philoshpy.

"Philosophically the practice aims to engage with issues of culture and habitat through rigorous interrogation and a belief in design as a means of addressing both spatial and programmatic concerns within a wider historical and social context. MGA+D is interested in architectural spaces that address the primal experiential nature in people, through basic attractions to light, material and patterns of movement. The spaces are concerned with formally consistent compositions of volumes & elements where interior and exterior are conceived as an integrated idea. This involves a commitment and close attention to the detailing of scale, surface, threshold and junction and the rigorous exploration of the zones between what has come before and what is new."

I think it's the last sentence that sums him up for me.  Here are some of my favourite images.
