Sam brings a wealth of experience in urban and architectural design to the IPS team. With a background in architectural practice, Sam has enjoyed a diverse career working for some of the Sunshine Coast’s leading architects, as well as having over 13 years’ experience in local government in Queensland and Melbourne.

He is highly creative and builds on our client’s visions to create vibrant, sustainable communities with site-responsive design solutions. Sam balances design talent with pragmatic, technical and organisational skills; he has a fine eye for detail and is respected by clients, consultants and builders for his design and diplomacy skills.

In his quiet time, Sam likes to combine his love of design and nature through the art of Bonsai. When he’s not getting his Zen on, he might be found sweating it out on his bicycle or hiking bushland trails, cruising art galleries or just kicking back in the concrete jungle or sub-tropical paradise with loved ones.
