Experience is causal. The practice runs through three vehicles — each working a different layer of the same claim — plus a small number of independent advisory mandates each year.
A home, for everyone.
Liven World develops next-generation residential environments designed around how people actually live — not around the spreadsheet they were sold from. Living infrastructure as a deliberate category, not a marketing claim.
Our thesis is simple. Housing is the most repeated environment in a person's life. Decisions made at the development table compound into outcomes that last decades. We design backwards from the lived reality we want to produce.
Built around lives, not just buildings.
REDE — Resident Experience Design — is an independent conceptual platform on experience as system architecture. The work that sits between the spatial brief and the operating reality, where most projects under-deliver and few people credibly bridge.
It is the practice ground for how the four-system framework gets applied to specific developments. Including LiveLens, an instrument for reading the lived experience of a building before, during and after handover.
High-impact talks for the people writing the cheques.
A keynote platform focused exclusively on developers, investors and public-sector leaders. The talks reframe housing and place-making as user-centered practice — and reframe lived experience as a financial variable, not a soft one.
Used at IC offsites, board sessions, public-sector convenings and industry stages.
Beyond the three platforms, I take a small number of independent advisory mandates with founders, developers, investors and boards working at the intersection of organisations, environments and capital.
A 4–6 week pre-investment read. Assess whether the systems being built can carry the ambitions placed on them.
Embedded across pre-development, design and pre-opening. Co-owns the lived-experience model with the team.
A standing seat on the small set of decisions that compound over decades. By referral.
