In addition,Denton Corker said that “We’ve designed a lot of embassies,” Denton replies, “and in every one there’s this idea that the ambassador should be able to take visitors around the building and use it to tell a story — so we’re very used to this idea. But here we had this idea that this was Australia sitting at the edge of the trees.”.
