Brief Biography

I began working independently in 2004 after ten years of practicing and lecturing in London and Manchester. At present I am working on two interesting house extensions an orthodontic clinic, a new build art gallery and an apartment design with Urbansplash, all in Manchester. The gallery was a competition win in collaboration with David Adjaye and David Rudlin. I am also involved with the RIBA trust, working on the Le Corbusier exhibition which will be in the Edwin Lutyens crypt under the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral.
