Sophie Cleland

Principal
Architectus

What is the value we put on the built environment? I believe can shape who we are and how we interact with our society. Architecture has a social responsibility and today more than ever we need to be generous and ambitious to support sustainable and well-designed environments.

Architecture is about our communities and people. Uniting and inspiring through building places that are enduring and represent people and their context both at a local scale and more broadly.

I am a registered architect in Victoria and South Australia. I work at a variety of scales from institutional, public-realm, urban and regional projects to mixed use developments. Prior to becoming an architect, I worked in advertising in Australia and Southeast Asia.

In addition to my role as Principal at Architectus, I am panellist for State Design Review South Australia and Western Australia and am a former Victorian Chapter Councillor and ARBV Deputy Chair.

As a leader I bring a collaborative style that is energetic, supportive, and empowering. I want to foster engaging relationships for clients’, colleagues and the community to support responsive architecture and urban design within our cities, towns and regional communities.
