Edward Sydney Luttrell

Edward Sydney "Sidney" Luttrell (20 June 1872 – 17 July 1932) was an architect in Tasmania and New Zealand.

He and his older brother Alfred Edward Luttrell (October 21, 1865—May 7, 1924) were partners of S. & A. Luttrell, a firm of architects and building contractors noted for its contributions to New Zealand architecture, both in terms of style and technology.

The practice was established in Launceston, Tasmania in 1897 when Alfred who was operating his own architectural practice, went into partnership with his brother and former apprentice Sidney, under the original name "A. & S. Luttrell". The brothers moved to Christchurch, New Zealand, and by 1902 were submitting tender notices there.

Edward Sidney was also noted for his keen interest in horse racing. He was a part-owner of Sasanoff, winner of the Melbourne Cup in 1916.
