John Hamilton Andrews, born in Sydney, October 29, 1933 (age 92), is an Australian architect. Andrews has been the recipient of many awards including the RAIA Gold Medal.
In his architecture, Andrews shows more concern with solving specific site and programmatic requirements than with establishing a distinctive style. He develops the building and site according to climatic conditions and user needs. With a rational approach that emphasizes circulation and user interaction, Andrews creates user friendly environments. [1]
