Jun 2020 - Present
Previously known as CASA Consulting Group, the practice was renamed THE DESIGNFIRE in 2020 as part of the 10-year anniversary to reflect its unique expertise. At THE DESIGNFIRE we are a team of industry experts in architecture, fire engineering, building compliance specialists, and consultants with over 20 years of experience. Our unique point of difference is our ability to create a beautiful design that is functional and compliant. As the managing director, I work within the fire consultant and architectural side of the business. Beyond this I have also been writing and reviewing fire reports since 2005, giving me over 15 years of experience in this area. This allows THE DESIGNFIRE to provide all the necessary planning for every building project with an integrated approach, merging science and art. As we develop your design with you, we can cover all the necessary, building consents, compliance, and fire engineering requirements in a streamlined process. Show less
