She has served as Director of Harry Seidler and Associates since 1966 and has been directly involved in the commissioning of artists for projects, contributing significantly to the intersection of architecture and the arts.
Together with Harry Seidler, she championed modernist art and architecture in Australia. The practice鈥檚 work demonstrates how modern architectural principles, rational design, and innovative engineering can be combined with exceptional business acumen to produce internationally significant buildings, including Sydney鈥檚 Australia Square.
