Biography

Virginia Kerridge established her studio in 1995. The practice soon became known for an exquisite catalogue of contemporary housing that crafted thoughtful relationships between interiors and landscapes. Kerridge’s deep interest in art practice has led to an almost painterly approach to material, texture, colour and light. These elements infuse the studio’s projects in both new and existing buildings and across diverse housing and commercial projects. 

Virginia received an RAIA Merit award and the 1995 President’s Award for Recycled Buildings very early in her career for her Taylor Square Warehouse project. Since then, Kerridge has received numerous awards from the Australian Institute of Architects and the Master Builder’s Associations. House in Country NSW was named as Australia’s House of the Year in the 2011 Houses Awards. The studio’s work has been widely published locally and internationally. The practice has not only established itself as one of the significant design practices of contemporary housing in Sydney for both private and commercial development, but has also enjoyed acclaimed success in retail and hotel architecture.
