We’re happy to announce the growth of the Arcadia Team with two new fulltime staff. While this has led to some tight working conditions (until we shift to our new premises in early May – STAY TUNED!!! ) we welcome Matthew Simpkins and Nicholas Pierson and look forward to the skill sets and experience that they bring to the Arcadia Team.
Matthew has joined us from Taylor Brammer and brings extensive experience from work on a variety of commercial, residential and open space projects. Matt has been involved on a range of design projects including the Landscape Master Plan for the University of Woolongong the Master Plan of Bulli Brickworks Residential, a Baptist Community Services Aged Care project in Kellyville and the Fanny Durack Aquatic Centre to name a few. Matt is passionate about innovative design and likes to challenge the way we perceive and interact with our environments.
In addition we also welcome Nicholas who has recently graduated from UWA after completing his final year at UNSW. Nick has previous experience in the design and construction industry in Perth where he was the lead designer implementing residential and estate developments. Nick has keen interest in the urban realm and facilitating strong relationships between people and place.
On other exciting news for our team, Verena Hall is currently on maternity leave to have her first child with her partner Dan. We wish them luck with their first child and look forward to Verena’s return in the hopefully not too distant future.
