John Bilmon leads P.T.W. Architects, international designers

John Bilmon on P.T.W. Architects

Exporting since the mid-1980s, P.T.W. Architects’ key markets include China, the Middle East and New Zealand.

Established in 1889 (as Peddle, Thorp & Walker), a milestone in PTW Architects’ export journey occurred 100 years later, when, along with Hua Yi Designing Consultants, the company won an international design competition for the Shenzhen Development Bank Head Office project. This gave the company extra confidence to enter projects in foreign markets, and their folio includes a range of prestigious projects such as their collaborative involvement in the Watercube Swimming Centre for the 2008 Beijing Olympics and the impressive Palm Jumeirah project in Dubai. Offices in Shanghai, Beijing, Hanoi and Sydney help the company maintain their global presence. John Bilmon, managing director, was recently named an Australian Export Hero by the Australian Institute of Export.
