Her design work impresses with gorgeous clarity, awareness of material interplay, consistently conveyed through warm, minimalist tones.</p> <p>The conversation touched on the team's collaborative nature, the intention to keep the studio small, and the challenges of scoring bigger, public commissions for emerging practices in Canada.<br></p>
