Dr. John Gamble

Biography

John Gamble graduated from the Architecture program at The University of New South Wales and has been involved in architectural education and private practice for over forty years. He completed his PhD in 2014 with a thesis titled ‘Alvar Aalto: Formal Structure Methodical Development Inclusive Architecture’. His primary research interests focus on the connections between major elements in architectural projects, including human situations, site, material construction, and spatial enclosure. Gamble's work often explores how design strives to be inclusive and considers how a singular architectural form can establish productive connections among the multiplicity and diversity of a project’s patterns and the surrounding living contexts. His foundational investigative ideas are influenced by philosopher Susanne Langer, particularly regarding the relational structure and complexity present in art and architecture.
