“I’m interested in architecture that’s a regenerative, net-positive force.”

As an Associate in our Retail and Mixed-Use team, Richard stewards diverse, complex projects from concept to delivery. His project experience includes transit-oriented development, shopping centre masterplanning, and neighbourhood activity centres.

Richard is accredited by the International Living Future Institute, the professional credential that recognises the most ambitious, advanced and holistic sustainable design standards available worldwide. He’s a driving force behind CHC’s Sustainability Action Plan and initiatives, alongside colleague Sindy Bowlen.

Richard is passionate about the art and science of architecture and motivated by the big ideas and research-based solutions that underpins leading design. On projects he strives for exquisite simplicity to achieve maximum effect. Like so many of us, he’s driven by a strong social conscience. He’s also fascinated by the way our physical environments affect our neurology, emotions, health and wellbeing. He sees an important role for biophilic and sustainable design in creating more regenerative communities with a net-positive impact on people and planet.
