A starting point
A new venue, refurbishment or existing space that needs to work better for its users and operators.
I bring the needs of users and operators into venue planning, development and refurbishment. The work connects how a space is designed, how it functions and how it will operate—from technical infrastructure to opening-day readiness—alongside architects, engineers and other project specialists.
Based in Melbourne, I work with individuals, organisations and project teams. We can focus on a specific part of your project or connect several services around what the work needs.
