Director, Design Makes Project

Excellent design is not only about appearance, but about how people move through, use and maintain their space over time.

Design Makes Project works at the intersection of architecture, interiors and construction delivery, supporting clients from early property assessment through design development and completion.  Be that with a residential client, business owner or supporting other design profesionals.

We focus on practical, considered design that balances spatial quality, usability and real-world construction performance.  Our ideas arn't pie in the sky and we will work with like minded specilists to deliver at your budget.

Rather than treating projects simply as extensions or aesthetic refurbishments, work is approached holistically — exploring how existing spaces can be improved, how layouts function, and how the space supports the way you live and work.  

Experience across structured architectural projects, high-end residential, retail, hospitality interiors has shaped a working approach that values clarity of decision making, risk awareness and practical problem solving when things do go wrong.

The aim is to provide professional guidance and support alongside design, helping clients move confidently from initial idea through to a successfully delivered project.
