Bark Design Architects is a Noosa based design team directed by the partnership of architects Stephen Guthrie and Lindy Atkin. Bark works with climatic and site responsive philosophies, in pursuit of the creation of contemporary buildings which reveal a spirit and an endemic sense of place. Experiential qualities of lightness, transparency, texture, seamless indoor / outdoor spaces, light and shadow, integration with the landscape, and working with ‘captured landscapes’ are design principles for all Bark projects. As a multi-disciplinary team, Bark provides a broad range of architectural and full design services to ensure cohesive and total project solutions.

My work is essentially about finding the uniqueness of a place, whether it be historically, culturally or environmental and incorporate it into a piece of public furniture or art work. So that the community finds it relevant and wants to take ownership of it.

Engagement using creative processes is what I aim for, in my work as a lecturer, researcher and facilitator. I have extensive experience in the arts and education within school, university and community settings. Specific interests include using drama and new media in creative processes. I am available for research, writing, consultancy and project facilitation.
