Why did you choose Architecture as a career?

I’ve been drawn to architecture since I was a kid when I would spend countless hours designing my ‘dream bedroom’ (the main consistency in these designs being the outrageous use of pink). Architecture combines creativity and expression while applying the constraints of reality; the challenge of balancing these two rather diametric approaches to design has always fascinated me.

Where in the world has architecture taken you?

Although architecture hasn’t directly taken me on any major adventures yet, it is constantly taking me on miniature ones—anything from visiting open to detouring to see the Nightingale projects while in Melbourne. No matter where I am, I’ve always found something to explore in the name of architecture.

If you weren’t in architecture, what would you be doing?

If I weren’t in architecture, I might have pursued set design. A childhood visit to Weta Workshop almost converted me! The creativity and craft of bringing imaginary worlds to life would make for such a fascinating career.

What is your proudest moment?

Probably completing my Master’s in Architecture. It was incredibly rewarding to achieve something I had been working toward for years. Plus, fitting in a five-week trip to Europe during my thesis year was a nice bonus.

Dinner with one person, past or present, who would it be and why?

I would have to say, Eileen Gray. As a pioneer of the modern architectural movement, I’d love to discuss her design process and the thinking behind her beautiful and innovative work.
