Paul Couch, Field Studies: A Conversation on an Elusive Australian Architect

Join us for this special event at Helsinki Design Week, celebrating the release of Paul Couch, Field Studies—the first in-depth publication on one of Australia’s most significant and elusive architects. The evening will open with a panel discussion featuring renowned Finnish architectural theorist Juhani Pallasmaa, acclaimed Australian architectural photographer Tom Ross, and Australian architect James Mugavin—who are also the co-authors of the book. Together, they will explore Couch’s legacy, his distinctive architectural language, and the core themes captured in the book, including materiality, landscape, and an architecture of just enough—all deeply rooted in the Australian context. Following the discussion, guests are warmly invited to stay, mingle, and enjoy the space—a relaxed opportunity to continue the conversation and connect with others in the design community.
