02 8774 8888

Chris has extensive experience in furniture design, interior design and specification sales.

What inspires you?

Architecture and design are close to my heart. I have always enjoyed the sale of products to designers more than the design process on its own.

As a salesperson, collaboration with architects and designers gives you the privilege to be connected to the bigger picture of urban design and the many talented people in the industry.

Your favourite product and why?

Classic Plaza Seat. Versatile, practical, good-looking and a timeless product.

The seats can be modified to suit any need, such as DDA compliance, external power supply for students at Sydney University, and any installation situation.

Five years on from installation: Classic Plaza Seats at Mission Dolores Park, San Francisco.

Architects, writes Chloe Sun for ArchDaily, could be facing crises in the physical world due to constraints of factors such as structure, and management, that limit the possibility of the discipline.

How did you get started and find your unique career pathway? My career has tended to veer off the beaten track. I’ve never been too worried about what other people think and am risk-hungry. I’m also interested in disruption – looking for better ways of doing things. At 23 as an architecture grad I talked my way into an internship at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
