According to Gallery director Dr. Michael Brand, through the two-stage invited competition, "the Gallery is seeking ideas that will create an architecturally ambitious, intelligent, sensitive, sustainable and highly functional design. Our site overlooking Sydney Harbor will inspire each of the invited architectural practices, all of whom have extraordinary design skills."
Dr. Brand chaired the jury* that selected the 12 invited firms and will select up to five architectural practices to develop their designs in early 2015. Based on these final submissions, "in April the jury will select an architectural practice that will work closely with the Gallery and stakeholders to develop a detailed design," per a statement from the Gallery.
