DESIGN + BUILD + FURNITURE INTEGRATION

Imagine that the space you’re designing today is never finished and exists in a constant state of flux and change. Imagine that this not only applies to the current practice of moving walls, desks and people, but also to culture change, brand changes—and very importantly, changes in the experience of the space. What decisions would you make in the design process if the potential for constant change was always present – the ability to turbo charge the workspace experience?
I ensure that the strategy, design, furniture and construction teams, who are all acting for you – the client, are aligned throughout the design + build + delivery process to ensure the very best outcome.

Any large design and build project involves many different specialist groups. All the experts need to work together cooperatively, not competitively. Integrative design uses the three E’s – everyone, everything and early – to guarantee success.

I can offer well-informed expertise in the space design and building process and ensuring the furniture solutions are fit for purpose in creating a collaborative environment for various groups – and different personalities – to work together constructively; Architects, Interior Designers, Furniture Specialists, Technology Experts, Project Leaders, Build Partners, Cost Consultants, Programmers.

A truly integrative approach includes the environment. I’m proud to have led ground-breaking sustainable commercial building developments in New Zealand. Sustainable buildings are not only better for the environment; they are better for the occupiers and they make sound business sense.
