I am inspired by the historical evolution of both classical and modern design, and in understanding the underlying core structures in great architecture.

More recently John has led the close-out of site works for the Kangaroo Point Green Bridge, developed master planning and reference design projects such as the North Australian Arts Precinct, Townsville Concert Hall and Gold Coast Indoor Entertainment Arena, and led our Jinndii Waijung project with the Lady Musgrave Trust, a series of homes for victims of domestic viole at risk of homelessness.
