Michael brings a wealth of experience in architecture and development, blending creative vision with strategic insight to deliver exceptional results for his clients.

His career began in the prestigious office of Lord Richard Rogers (RSH+P) in the City of London, where he contributed to the design of a high-profile luxury redevelopment in Prime Central London. This foundation in world-class design sharpened his eye for detail and innovation.

Seeking a broader perspective, Michael transitioned to the development side of the industry, taking on a key role in acquisitions and strategic land at one of Scotland’s largest privately owned construction and development groups. This experience gave him a deep understanding of the commercial and strategic elements of property development—insight that allows him to navigate complex projects with precision and foresight.

Alongside his professional career, Michael has independently completed a series of boutique residential and commercial developments for private clients. His approach combines architectural excellence with a clear understanding of his clients’ needs, creating spaces that are not only beautiful but functional and enduring.
