Formerly a Design Lead at Box, Caitlin believes no other building has more direct and intimate impact on the human spirit than our own homes and is a huge fan of human-centred design. Caitlin’s experience includes the nuts and bolts of professional practice - producing working and detail drawings for building consent and construction to tight deadlines, liaison with council, engineers and other consultants and quality assurance/peer review.
Caitlin is also passionate about religious architecture, which became the focus of her Master’s thesis, due to “its ability to deeply move and inspire people through beauty, scale and a sense of awe.” |
