TESTING FORM architects is a team of architects, planner and technicians, who work with associated historians and archaeologists, with the objective of creating an innovative architectural consultancy with a focus on contemporary design – especially in contexts with culturally significant sites and adaptive reuse.

Between 2008 and 2010 the practice merged with HBO+EMTB and was successful in procuring projects from the SRA, Resitech, Defence Maintenance Management and Brookfield Multiplex as well as a broader range of residential, educational and heritage projects. These included procuring and managing the design and documentation of Holsworthy Railway Station Commuter Carpark and several Seniors Living and Special housing projects. In 2009 I worked with Brookfield Multiplex to procure the BER project for Western Sydney and directed the documentation and certification of 68 schools as well as authoring 16 Heritage Assessments.

We have extensive experience with State and Local Government planning policies through our role

FORM has a portfolio of successful projects in the areas of;

• Conservation planning and restoration,
• Adaptive reuse of significant and redundant buildings;
• Individual contemporary housing;
• Individual, medium density and high rise housing;
• Serviced apartments, guest houses and hotels;
• Student housing;
• Commercial buildings and interiors; and
• Educational and scientific building.

We have highly developed verbal and graphic communication skills, largely as a result of my role as a heritage consultant and the necessity to communicate with a broader range of consultants and authorities than in the general architectural practice.

FORM has considerable experience in working within multidisciplinary design teams and as a result have worked in consultation with all disciplines of engineering and service consultants, urban designers, planners, archaeologists, historians and archivists.
