Upon graduating with honours in 2003 and receiving the NSW Department of Commerce Prize for Architecture Chris has been fortunate enough to work in a variety of project typologies including health, infrastructure, commercial, retail, recreation and residential. This experience extends to all aspects of a project from inception and feasibility through to master planning, design, documentation, coordination, contract administration, commissioning and occupation.
