Luke Middleton

Luke is one of Australia’s leading environmental designers. He has been championing sustainable and regenerative design for over two decades, and has applied his passion and expertise across a wide range of award winning projects. 

Nature based systems are Luke’s driving force. He sees everything through a wide ecological lens and believes this is a springboard to poetic design.

Since 2008, Luke has been developing/evolving his “Elastic Loop” process driven design, procurement and occupation methodology.  He believes the industry can restructure and recalibrate to meet the wicked problems facing the industry.

Luke’s systems thinking lens extends to water and food resilience. In 2005 – 2009 he developed an educational program for industry and councils on the holistic integration of rainwater collection and stormwater abatement.
