Claire Scorpo is a highly accomplished architect who has developed a portfolio of beautifully detailed projects. Her projects have grown from thoughtful residential alterations and additions that explore sensitive material selection and passive environmental design strategies, through to the new female-led commercial development “BVIA on Bank”, which seeks to address gender equity in the profession and to promote women in the built environment.

Claire has been a consistent contributor to Australian Institute of Architects committees and initiatives including EmAGN, Small Practice Forum, and Chapter award juries. Claire demonstrates a passion to explore highly relevant social topics and a drive to engage with her community and advocate for the positive impact of architecture through her practice, teaching and voluntary work.

I recently moved to the Mornington Peninsula with my young family (and dog!) but my family have lived here for over 25 years; so it's where I feel grounded. I care deeply about community and collaboration and joined WiB MP to connect with others and make a contribution to my community. I would also like to make a lasting impact in social issues, such as housing affordability, which is an area I am passionate about.
