Charlie Hussey was born and raised in London. He studied at Liverpool University and then, after a year-out in New York returned to the UK to complete his graduate studies at the Mackintosh School in Glasgow.

Upon graduating He joined the office of the late Sir James Stirling and worked on a number of international commissions and competitions including the Tokyo Forum, The Paris Library and the Temasek Polytechnic, Singapore

Following the untimely death of Stirling, he was invited to join Renzo Piano’s office in Italy to work on the competition for a new performing Arts Centre in Rome. In spite of winning the competition he decided to return to the UK and in 1997 established Sutherland Hussey Architects with his long term colleague, Charlie Sutherland.

Within a few years the practice had completed a number of award winning small scale projects all over the UK; Barnhouse in Highgate London, Lynher dairy in Cornwall; and An Turas on The Island of Tiree, which was shortlisted for the Stirling and Mies van der Rohe prizes as well as being the recipient of the RSA gold medal and the Doolan Prize for best building in Scotland Award.


Aside from projects in the UK the practice has been involved in a number of projects overseas on a larger scale. These have included a major urban regeneration proposal for Sligo, the new British Embassy in Sarajevo, Bosnia, a design guide for a new National park in Xiling mountains of Shechuan China, an Archaeology museum in inner Mongolia and most recently winning an International architectural competition in Chengdu, China, for a new City Museum.

For the last twelve years in tandem with running a practice he has been a research active contributor and part time tutor at the Glasgow School of Art. He has also been invited to give numerous lectures about the work of the practice and as a guest critic to a number of schools of Architecture.

He is married with 2 children and lives and works in Edinburgh.
