Associate Principal, Arup
Nick began his career as a structural engineer with Connell Wagner in 2004, before specialising in glass and façade systems during his time with Dewhurst Macfarlane in New York (2008–10). Since 2011, he has worked as a façade specialist with Arup: initially in Melbourne and now in Adelaide. Nick presently acts as Arup’s ANZ geograpahy Building Envelope Practice and Skills leader.
A passionate advocate for the Circular Economy, Nick has contributed to research, spoken on expert panels, and advised on Arup’s Circular Building Toolkit. He promotes design approaches that enable disassembly and material re-use across the project lifecycle.
Nick is committed to fostering excellence in both façade design and the consulting profession, by contributing to the industry as a member of Consult Australia’s SA Chapter Committee, a sessional lecturer at the University of Adelaide, and the challenging designers to think holistically, pragmatically from a first principles basis when designing Building Envelopes.
