Cox Architecture was founded in Sydney in 1962 by Philip Cox, originally as Philip Cox and Associates. Tpday, the award-winning multidisciplinary practice employs hundreds of people in studios right across Australia, delivering major architectural, urban design and interior design projects as far afield as Asia, Europe and the Middle East.
In 1984, founder Philip Cox was awarded the Gold Medal from the Australian Institute of Architects. Four years later he received the Order of Australia for his services to architecture.
Stories about some past projects can be found on ArchitectureAU via the profile pages for Cox Rayner Architects, Cox Richardson Architects and Planners, and Cox Sanderson Ness.
