About Paul

Dr Paul Matthew serves as the Program Convenor for the Master of Architecture and Lecturer in Design (Built Environment) in the School of Architecture, Design and Planning at the University of Queensland. His academic background includes a PhD awarded in 2021 by the School of Architecture at the University of Queensland, with his thesis titled "Midlife crisis: reducing life cycle energy use in Brisbane's older apartment towers," which examined strategies to lower energy use in existing urban apartment structures. Matthew's research centers on building performance and energy efficiency, sustainable retrofitting of older apartment buildings to achieve net zero energy and climate resilience, life cycle analysis of building materials for urban redevelopment, and housing design that supports health amid climate change, particularly for remote Indigenous communities in semi-arid Australia.
