Tristram Carfrae is responsible for the design of an impressive array of
award-winning buildings and is regarded internationally as a leading
designer of light weight long-span structures.

In collaborating with some of the world’s best architects, he has a
reputation for challenging the established way of doing things; for
exploring better solutions; and moulding both materials and people to
his vision.

Tristram is behind the design of The Water Cube - Beijing’s National

portfolio of other projects including: Helix Bridge, Singapore; AAMI
Stadium, Melbourne; 1 Shelley Street, Sydney and Kurilpa Bridge,
Brisbane.

He is named as one of Australia’s Top 100 most influential engineers and
was Australian Professional Engineer of the Year in 2001.

Tristram will present stories about several projects that he has helped
design over the past 30 years that illustrate how architects, engineers
and, in some cases, contractors work together to produce unique designs.
