LAWRENCE FRIESEN

Bachelor of Architecture, Environmental Design - Architecture & Urban Design (Dalhousie)

Masters Architecture (Dalhousie)

​

Director - Design & Fabrication

Lawrence knew he was going to be an architect and builder since the age of 12, helping his father build houses in Canada.  He went on to study at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia and then worked for Buro Happold for 10 years, setting up and overseeing their Generative Geometry team.  The combination of formal architecture training, practical involvement in engineering problems, working with some of the most globally recognised design teams, and a passion for building things, has created a portfolio and skill set that won't be pigeon-holed.

​

As an experienced design professional with deep expertise in challenging building design to respond to the economic, sustainability and fabrication realities of construction.
