EMERGING: TAYLOR + HINDS

Hailing from the small yet culturally rich location of Tasmania, Poppy Taylor and Mat Hinds are the architects behind the state’s award-winning practice Taylor + Hinds. Both come from strong backgrounds in the industry, bringing with them a plethora of passion and experience.

Hinds developed an interest in architecture in his formative years and knew, quite young, that this was the career in which he pictured himself – indeed, he remembers the exact moment when he came to this realisation. He followed this childhood dream into his education, obtaining a Bachelor of Environmental Design and a Bachelor of Architecture (First Class Honours). Taylor, on the other hand, took a shine to design and the environment, and – not unlike Hinds – pursued this interest at the University of Tasmania
