LACOSTE+STEVENSON - ARCHITECTURE+URBAN DESIGN +INTERIORSLacoste + Stevenson is a design based architectural practice established in 1997 by Thierry Lacoste and David Stevenson. As a result of an international partnership, the practice is able to take advantage of both strong local connections together with global influences to produce a distinctive architecture.Lacoste + Stevenson have developed a reputation for innovative and responsive solutions to a range of projects, public and private, large and small including an award-winning industrial project in Sydney, an award-winning house on the Noosa River and innovative public housing in France.Currently, Lacoste + Stevenson have just completed the refurbishment of Customs House for the relocation of the City of Sydney Library to Circular Quay. The library is spread over 3 levels and is a mix of contemporary design on the ground floor and a more conventional library type on Levels 1 and 2 reflecting the different environments: The ground floor is a new public ‘living room’ for Sydney, the upper floors become increasingly reflective.In all projects, Lacoste + Stevenson aim to make more of a design opportunity than might first be apparent. Both of the principals are directly involved in all their projects, which ensured an innovative and high standard of design together with a strong commitment to client service. The office has a high level of technological skills in design, presentation and documentation.
