Welcome

My architectural journey began in New Zealand, where I specialised in designing bespoke houses and hospitality venues, including bars and restaurants in Christchurch and the Southern Lakes. This experience honed my ability to craft spaces that are both functional and aesthetically captivating, tailored to the unique needs and aspirations of each client.

In London, I had the privilege of working on the refurbishment of listed offices and residential properties, deepening my understanding of conservation and the seamless integration of contemporary design within historic contexts. During this time, I worked for esteemed firms such as Studio Kyson and Neil Dusheiko Architects.

At Studio Kyson, an award-winning practice renowned for well-crafted, contextual, and contemporary projects, I worked on a diverse range of commercial developments. Notably, I was involved in the full refurbishment of a Grade II listed warehouse in Borough—carefully balancing heritage preservation with modern functionality. I also contributed to the design and delivery of a nine-storey townhouse in the heart of Chelsea, featuring a dramatic three-storey basement that included a squash court, swimming pool, cinema, and a slide that connected three levels. These projects pushed the boundaries of technical complexity and luxury design, reinforcing my commitment to detail, craft, and ambition.

At Neil Dusheiko Architects, I further developed a thoughtful, user-centred approach to residential architecture. My work there included the sensitive restoration of a Grade II listed villa in Canonbury, blending period character with contemporary living. I also designed a modern pavilion extension to a family home in Tonbridge—bringing light, openness and flow to the rear of the property. In Cambridge, I led a design team on an extension to a historic farmhouse and its adjoining coach house, carefully stitching together old and new while enhancing the home’s relationship to its garden. During this time, the practice was recognised with multiple accolades, including consecutive wins as Interior Designer of the Year at the British Home Awards.

Now based in Bath, I am passionate about bringing this diverse experience to clients in the South West who value high-end, sustainable, and innovative design. Whether you’re envisioning a new build that reflects your aspirations or seeking to sensitively refurbish your current home, my approach is tailored to realise your vision with an emphasis on environmental responsibility and design excellence.
