Like so many New Zealanders, I spend most of my free time in the outdoors - whether it's surfing, fishing, hiking, or cooking over a fire.
This passion is why I live near the coast in Northland with my partner and our kids, it's why I care about our environment, and it's why I design architecture the way I do.
To me, good architecture works with nature. It fits with the landscape, it harnesses environmental conditions, it enables people to comfortably enjoy the outdoors, and ultimately it allows people to live the lives they want.
Along with over a decade of experience in bespoke residential architecture, and degrees in both architecture and landscape architecture, I'm able to offer a service that's perfect for people who want a practical, efficient and comfortable home in nature.
