The ARM Architecture Trio was formed exactly thirty years ago, in 1986. From the very first steps, the team began to show a large-scale and amazingly innovative architecture. The commercial component and the status of city-forming projects did not prevent the development of the architectural avant-garde, pleasing the popular publications with the original picture. Their work has been awarded national and international prizes. The digital method and the Tetris facades of ARM Architecture inspire the minds of Australian students - the trio finds time for a successful academic department.
