Episode 246: 2025 Powerhouse Photography...

ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN
About this episode

Powerhouse has awarded architecture photographer Tasha Tylee the Powerhouse Photography Architectural Photography Commission, a new $20,000 commission project that will see Tylee collaborate with Powerhouse on a major new work over the coming year.

Born and raised in New Zealand, Tasha Tylee is an emerging architectural photographer who has worked with some of Australia’s top firms, most notably capturing Naples Street House by Edition Office, the 2024 AIA National Winner of The Robin Boyd Award for Residential Architecture.

Focusing on themes of sustainability and climate, Tylee will document innovation in architecture and the Australian built environment by following newly developed sustainable materials from their natural form, through to manufacturing, fabrication, installation, and their final use in a completed build.

She spoke with us recently from her temporary base in Mallorca, Spain.
