I provide Plain English advice to home and property owners on their own projects, or other projects that may adversely affect them. I will help them understand and visualise the design and its documentation. I can also provide statements of environmental effects and general advice on NSW heritage law.

I help community groups concerned about proposed developments with advice about planning and potentially campaign strategies.

My practice also covers small non-metropolitan councils who may need help to design and redevelop urban spaces and require appropriate strategic urban planning advice.

My experience in these services encompasses many local and international projects.
