_{Dalton Stewart’s interdisciplinary practice considers the interconnected roles of architecture, design, and visual art, examining how each informs and shapes the other. Designing furniture and objects, often using repurposed elements—his work seeks to layer and reveal stories, histories, archaeologies and material processes that are frequently overlooked, treating design as a critical form of enquiry.

He holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Victorian College of the Arts (2016), where he received the John Vickery Scholarship, and a Master of Architecture from the Melbourne School of Design, University of Melbourne (2024), where he was awarded the MacDonald Scholarship.
