From an early age; I have always been involved with the building industry be it concreting with my father, roof carpentry with my brother or painting with family friends. From here I started to appreciate the importance of good design that is not only beautiful but also practical.

 

After completing my Associate Diploma of Architecture (Drafting) in 1991, I set up my own business where I contracted to several builders and private clients for 2½ years. After this venture, I worked for some of Perth's biggest building companies for the next 22 years with work ranging from Sales Sketch Designer, Design Manager and Display and New Product Manager as well as winning many industry awards along the way.

 

In 2017, it was time to put my focus back into riccadonna design and now I find myself doing what I enjoy - designing homes for clients.
