About 

With over 18 years experience in architectural design, construction and art venues I have
attained a high level in design, detailing, supervising and coordinating projects. Problem solving
is a proved attribute. My collaborations have been based on a good intention to
communicate with my clients and colleagues with the aim of reaching an optimum solution. I have specialised in Restorations for Listed Buildings, Sound Recording Studios and Interior Design. My motto is that design comes in all shapes and sizes, whether you design a door knob or a high rise building your approach should always be the same. It is a creative procedure that needs an open mind and an open heart.
