Hello,
I am a RIBA/ARB chartered architect with over 25 years of experience working in the UK, Italy and Japan for others and myself.  I have worked on over fifty residential projects in Cornwall of varied types and scale. 

I am originally from Kyoto, Japan and lived many years in Italy, two beautiful countries where I soaked up unique cultures and diverse senses of aesthetics. After living and working in Cardiff, Cambridge and Manchester for over 14 years, I moved to the South-West of England attracted by the beautiful Cornish landscapes and architecture. In my free time, I like to walk, swim, and do a little sailing. 
I trained as an architect in Italy and the UK, with an additional specialisation in Landscape. I cover a large spectrum of design, from Residential to Commercial, Heritage, Cultural Buildings and Planning. I have also worked for a French organisation advising municipalities in Asia and Africa on urban planning. 
I believe design is a thinking and collaborative process. Its aim should be to improve the quality of life and the environment, unlock opportunities and produce the best response to the client’s brief and the place. I bring my varied experience to a project, looking at the brief from various angles, and trying to give the client the best advice for its specific situation.  
I am looking forward to speaking to you about a possible project together.
