"When designing, it is very much an artistic experience for me similar to that of a sketch or paint artist. The design process is very relaxing and I get so much enjoyment from the conceptual stage. From client feedback I understand this feeling transcends into the livable spaces of my clients’ new homes.

Form, function and Council by-laws are a given but one of my primary objectives is practicing sustainable design. Location of the living spaces precisely to capture the beautiful winter sun and identifying the natural cool air streams in summer my clients will feel comfortable and relaxed without the high energy costs of artificial heating and cooling. The integration of both indoor and outdoor spaces is essential in providing a great social atmosphere whilst filling the living spaces with clean fresh air for healthy living.

I have been very fortunate that my clients have given me freedom of design. Whilst being granted this freedom I am very respectful of my clients’ wishes and expectations to be achieved during this process and I am very determined and passionate to obtain a result far beyond their expectations."
