My Approach
I believe a well-designed home can be empathetic to the way someone lives.
It should respond to the unique patterns of people and place, offering a sense of security, warmth, and belonging.
​
I enjoy designing spaces with forms and materials that bring delight and tell a story — spaces that feel meaningful and grounded.
​
I'm passionate about optimising thermal comfort and energy efficiency, and I work with natural, low embodied energy materials to create buildings that are both sustainable and enduring.

Sustainability Philosophy
​
Sustainability is built into every part of my work — from how a home is shaped to the materials we choose and how it feels to live in.
​
I take a fabric-first approach, designing well-insulated, airtight buildings that naturally stay comfortable year-round, reducing the need for mechanical heating and cooling.
​
Guided by Passive House principles, I focus on fresh air, thermal comfort, and low energy use — using smart, simple design to create healthy, efficient homes.
​
I prioritise natural, low-toxicity materials that are kind to both people and planet. Every project is an opportunity to balance beauty, performance, budget, and sustainability.
​
For me, sustainable design is a creative process — one that invites new ideas and thoughtful choices, tailored to each place and person. The goal is simple: to build homes that last, feel good to live in, and tread lightly on the earth.
