Now that I am running my own studio, always looking for other owners to trade stories about working in the New Zealand context, lead generation, and business growth best practices.
Showcase
Buffalo Lodge
A refit of an existing 70's lodge, creating a soft and cozy retreat high in the hills of Coromandel Town. We created several public spaces for guests to socialise and engage, and private rooms to unwind in with high end finishes that still respect the original building's 70s bones.

Hotel Chelsea
Built in 1883, Hotel Chelsea is both a landmarked and SHPO protected historic building in NYC. Working for ownership directly, roles ranged from a senior designer for both architecture and interiors, to project manager of the onsite construction team. The hotel restoration and redesign required onsite redesign and direction daily, as each of the 200+ rooms required different preservation needs and design layouts.
