Simon Wilson
Architectural Developer
More

Since 2018, Simon has worked across a wide range of typologies at a variety of scales — from small public artworks to community spaces, libraries, museums, heritage, education, and residential developments — contributing across all phases from early design through to documentation.

His work is informed by a deep respect for craft and hands-on process.  Having trained in furniture and cabinetmaking prior to beginning architecture, Simon brings precision, care, and an appreciation for materiality, timber in particular, to every project.  This love of craft underpins his approach to both 3D digital and physical modelling, where his attention to detail allows him to explore complex spatial ideas and communicate design intent with clarity.

He is drawn to architecture that embraces the unconventional, while seeking to create socially responsive, sustainable, and engaging spaces.  Simon advocates for strong project definition and strategic briefing to ensure designs respond to client objectives while unlocking broader social, economic, and environmental opportunities.
