About

My interest lies in driving successful project outcomes for our clients. I enjoy every project I work on. I love problem-solving, creating opportunities out of constraints, having those moments of inspiration that can drive the design forward.

David has been at the helm of many complex, high-profile projects. An architect who understands master planning and good design, he has the skillset to integrate residential, commercial, retail and hotel uses to deliver great living, working, and city spaces.

David’s keen interest in properly understanding the needs of a client allows him to gain a level of trust so that he can evaluate requirements, challenge convention, and add value to projects. Committed and resilient, David considers architecture a true labour of love. His balance between subtle detail and thoughtful composition and bold interventions continues to produce unique and rewarding projects.
