Sri Lanka Gift

Each year publishers 01 Editions have donated to the Architecture Foundation Australia a copy of their splendid Folio Edition on the works and drawings of Glenn Murcutt, to be presented to the library of an architecture school in a developing nation, with which one of the participants on the annual Murcutt Master Class has a close association.

In 2015, the gift was made to the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Moratuwa in Sri Lanka where Architect Varuna de Silva is a lecturer and tutor. The Folio includes extensive new especially commissioned photography, portfolios of facsimile copies of Glenn's original hand drawings, and with texts by Kenneth Frampton, David Malouf and Juhani Pallasmaa.
