About

Plus icon

I believe that great mixed-use design enriches the amenity of a place and creates an attractive destination. My first mixed-use project was in Singapore, where I got a taste for balancing typologies that respond to the subtleties of the local context and way of living. I now thrive on creating these mixed-use environments. Architecture affects everyone, even if they don’t realise it. People can tell you what parts of a city is jarring to them, and what parts they love. They may not know the reasons why, but their reaction is their perception of that architecture. I love designing places that people enjoy without really thinking about it.

I’ve gained significant boots-on-the-ground experience delivering major retail, commercial, and mixed-use projects across Australia, the UK, and China. I really enjoy working alongside my clients to understand their objectives and realise their vision.

Inspiration

I like the process of creating something for others to enjoy. I was either going to be a chef, a sound engineer, or an architect. The latter won, but there are still similarities: architecture can alter the mood and environment with its expression and visual rhythm.

Tactility and textures, like the play of light on certain materials
Disconnecting from the urban side of things and going for a drive or walk
