Editorial information
Welcome to STEEL PROFILE® 119
BlueScope continues to support excellence in architecture as the Principal Corporate Partner of the 2104 National Architecture Awards in Darwin, at which Johnson Pilton Walker fittingly won the 2014 National COLORBOND® Award for Steel Architecture for its White Bay Cruise Terminal.
We also wish to congratulate the state-based winners of the COLORBOND® Award for Steel Architecture, for buildings that exemplify inspirational and innovative design. Both the Nannup Holiday House by iredale pedersen hook Architects and Cox Howlett & Bailey Woodland's Perth Rectangular Stadium Redevelopment are amongst the winners and you can read more about them here.
Unusually, the Nannup Holiday House is the only residential project featured in this issue.
This emphasises the great importance of architects investing themselves in large-scale commercial and public buildings so that countless others can enjoy them in the future.
Lastly, this is my final issue after three years as BlueScope editor. This steel-filled journey has been immensely rewarding and I thank all our readers, the ever-inspiring EAP and a brilliant editorial and production team for sharing in it.

Art Director
STEEL PROFILE® has an Editorial Advisory Panel to ensure that only projects of the highest calibre are selected for publication. The panellists are:
Adam Haddow
Adam is a director of SJB Architects NSW. He was awarded the 40th Anniversary Churchill Fellowship in 2006 to study alternatives to conventional models of urban design. SJB Architects recently won two Australian Institute of Architects NSW Awards for Multiple Housing.
More than anything, he loves to design buildings.
Frank Stanisic
Stanisic Associates founder Frank Stanisic is a Sydney-based architect and urbanist.
His work is fuelled by an evolving interest in the diagram and frame as a basis for architectural invention, and the aesthetics of permeability.
Frank's projects have won numerous awards including Australian Institute of Architects' Special Jury, Wilkinson, Aaron Bolot and Frederick Romberg.
James Loder
James Loder is a graduate architect working at John Wardle Architects. Graduating from RMIT with a Master of Architecture (First Class Honours) in 2012, James was awarded the 2013 BlueScope Steel Glenn Murcutt Student Prize.
His work explores the formal relationships between building and landscape with great consideration given to spatial expression and materiality.
