Biography

Stout was born in Palmerston North in 1958,[3] and was educated at Palmerston North Girls' High School. Her father was a draughtsman and deer culler.[4] She studied at the University of Auckland, graduating with a Bachelor of Architecture in 1985, and gained registration as an architect in 1989.[4][5] Early in her career, Stout worked with Marshall Cook at Cook Hitchcock Sargisson, and with architect Murray Cockburn in Fiji.[4] In 1989, she formed Mitchell and Stout Architects Ltd with partner in life and work, architect David Mitchell. The pair split their time travelling by boat and working together up to Mitchell's death in 2018. Stout has also practised in Hong Kong.[6]

In 2001, Stout became a member of the NZIA Auckland Branch Urban Issues Group, which she went on to chair between 2002 and 2003. In 2005, she was made a member of Auckland mayor Dick Hubbard's Urban Task Force, which was described by The New Zealand Herald as "an attempt to block bad architecture passing for urban renewal".[7] She joined the Society for the Protection of Auckland City and Waterfront Inc (Urban Auckland[8]) in 2009, and chaired the lobby group between 2010 and 2021.[9] In the role, Stout fronted a successful campaign to stop Ports of Auckland's continued expansion of wharves into the Waitematā Harbour.[10]

Alongside Mitchell, Rau Hoskins and others, Stout was part of the creative team that designed New Zealand’s first show, Last, Loneliest, Loveliest, at the Venice Biennale of Architecture in 2014.[11]

Stout is a partner at Auckland architecture practice Mitchell Stout Dodd.[12]
