I graduated from VUW in 1988. The two main practices I have worked for since then are Athfield Architects -for about 6 years; and Herriot Melhuish Architects - for 4 years.
In the early 90's I spent 2 years travelling and found work in the UK with some rather unorthodox landscape designers who were doing a heritage job for Lord Rothschild. It was an interesting time.
At the end of 2001 I stopped working (for money) and had my first daughter. After her birth I worked on our house and a studio(in the back yard) for my husband - a commercial photographer- along with a few other family & kindergarten related projects.
Now daughter number two is at school I work from home, try to keep up with my children, walk the dog regularly and remember to pay my husband some attention now and then.

The new stair has also become a space where kids play games on the landing. The translucent plastic cladding provides privacy,safety from falling AND a fantastic light quality.
