Andrew Lane
Architect/Director with Indij Architecture & Design

Andrew is one of a small number of Indigenous Architects in Australia and a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Architects.  Andrew has a unique mix of technical skills and cultural knowledge based on his own Indigenous background and twenty-eight years working experience as an architect/project manager. As an architect and an Indigenous person, Andrew has focused his professional career on Indigenous housing and infrastructure.  Andrew has delivered a diverse range of projects in regional and remote locations in Queensland and the Northern Territory.  Andrew believes architecture and urban design can be used to foster feelings of being safe and secure, particularly for indigenous peoples, and can encourage interaction between people and the broader community through the activation of spaces that improve the quality of life of people through the creation of infrastructure and spaces that adds to people’s social, emotional and physical well-being.
