The son of a master builder, Ben spent many Sydney summers and semester breaks as a builder’s apprentice. After 2 years studying for a Bachelor of Construction Management at Sydney’s University of Technology and international travels, Ben returned to study architecture and now marries his grass roots knowledge of construction with his formal construction management studies and years of architectural training and practice. Since completing his architectural honours degree at the University of Western Australia, Ben worked on large public projects with leading east coast firm Daryl Jackson – Robyn Dyke before returning to Perth to start his own practice.

Ben has taught design at the University of Western Australia’s School of Architecture, presents annually at Open House Perth weekends, is a regular judge of the Australian Institute of Architecture (AIA) awards and maintains an A+ membership of the AIA, When not at home, he likes to travel to stay engaged with all the best architecture and developments in the built environment both nationally and abroad.
