Chloe Naughton

Originally from North Queensland, Chloe moved to Brisbane to study architecture at Queensland University of Technology. Upon graduating, Chloe designed a house in Bowen for her parents to retire in – Inverdon House. Taking advantage of the incredible learning opportunity that would come from overseeing the build of her first project, Chloe moved back to North Queensland during construction. Committed to climate-responsive architecture, this project became a testing ground for her to develop her ideas about architecture in the dry tropical context, aligning the design of Inverdon House with the skills and expertise of local trade. Chloe now lives in Brisbane and works with local practice m3architecture where she is engaging with architecture on a much larger scale and in a variety of contexts and was a speaker at the 2017 Asia Pacific Architecture Forum in Brisbane. - Australian Institute of Architects – Central Qld House of the Year, 2017 - Australian Institute of Architects - Qld State Award for Residential Architecture - Houses (new) 2017 - Australian Interior Design Awards – Best of State Residential Design, Qld, 2017. - HOUSES Awards Finalist - New House Over 200m2, 2017 - HOUSES Awards Finalist – Sustainability, 2017 - ThinkBrick Awards Finalist – Kevin Borland Masonry Award, 2017 - World Architecture Festival Finalist – House – Completed Buildings, 2017 (Announced November 17)
