This hardcover edition invites you to journey through the evolution of Wilson Architects. From the earliest designs of our namesake, AB Wilson, to reflections from our most recent Directors, GENIUS LOCI is a must-read for architecture enthusiasts and Brisbane historians alike who value their place and are careful in how we place things in it.
