Responsibilities
I am course director for both the Master of Design Administration and the Diploma in Architecture: Professional Practice.
External activities
I have extensive links with the construction industry and the architectural profession. I am a partner in Lupton Stellakis. I am also a Chartered Arbitrator and an adjudicator and expert witness.
I have held several external examiner appointments; currently I am external examiner to the British University in Dubai MSc in Construction Law and Arbitration, and to the Architects’ Professional Examination Authority in Scotland.
I am chair of the Construction Industry Council (CIC) Liability Panel, the CIC Liability Champion, and am a member of the RIBA President’s Advisory Committee on Dispute Resolution (a Presidential appointment). I have twice been elected to the Architects Registration Board (ARB), serving from 2006-2012, and during this time I represented ARB on the Architects Council of Europe (ACE).

Research interests
My research interests are in the professional and legal aspects of architecture and building procurement, both in the UK and internationally. As well as being a qualified and practicing architect, I also have a post-graduate law degree, and specialise in design liability and construction contract law.
I have published extensively, in total over 25 books, including the fifth edition of Cornes and Lupton’s Design Liability in Construction, published in 2013 by Wiley-Blackwell, a series of books on JCT standard forms of building contract (all re-published in 2016-17 as fourth editions), a book on the RIBA Concise and Domestic Building Contracts (second edition, 2018) and the fourth edition of Which Contract?. I am currently working on a sixth edition of Design Liability in Construction, and a sixth edition of Which Contract?.
I contribute regularly to the International Construction Law Review and have contributed several chapters to The Architect’s Legal Handbook.
