This is evident in his approach to practice, which spans exhibitions, buildings, teaching and publishing. His first book to capture artificial constructions was Stud: Architectures of Masculinity, which looked at the making of male identity through architecture. His latest publication, Groundwork: Between Landscape and Architecture, written with Diana Balmori, also looks at the construction of stereotypes, this time in the binary of landscape and building. During a visit to Melbourne in July 2012, where he was a keynote speaker at the Audio Architecture symposium, Joel Sanders spoke with Architecture Australia editor Timothy Moore about the dilemma of man-made dualisms in the architectural world.
