"There is a kind of paradoxical pleasing discomfort when you fall in love with an artwork. Maybe it’s a bit difficult, a bit unsettling, it should ask you to think and feel, and maybe the thinking and feeling out of balance or at odds."

Established in 2003, she has built the practice, recognised for design excellence in its built and conceptual work in residential and urban design, education, commercial, heritage, installation and interiors.
