la declaración del arquitecto y crítico, miembro del jurado citación del jurado, Kenneth Frampton.-

Como el propio Stutchbury ha dejado claro, no hay un solo punto de partida de su arquitectura. Sólo se puede decir que se deriva su carácter amplio de la experiencia enigmática del continente australiano en toda su inmensidad.

Al igual que Glenn Murcutt y Richard Leplastrier, los dos maestros arquitectos australianos con el que está más estrechamente relacionada y con el que habitualmente imparte un curso de estudio para estudiantes avanzados cada verano, Stutchbury construye el espíritu del interior en su trabajo, en el que la exótica flora y fauna del continente, por no hablar de su geología, relieve y clima, encontrar un eco de respuesta en su arquitectura.

Este arquitecto, como agente provocador, sigue siendo un hombre del pueblo, que combina en una sola personalidad volátil un líder y un colaborador. Se trata de una figura que reconoce y reconoce a diario que distinguidas obras de arquitectura no son creados por un solo individuo después de que el mito del genio. Por el contrario, él está perennemente involucrado en colaboraciones fugaces entre múltiples talentos y protagonistas, de los ingenieros estructurales y ambientales esenciales a pequeña escala, los fabricantes de cuasi-industriales que trabajan lejos en el borde de las cosas, junto con los arquitectos jóvenes dedicados refinar un determinado piece en el último minuto, en las primeras horas de la mañana.
