Alan works across housing, commercial, advisory and education projects at Fieldwork. His Master’s thesis on comfort and climatic adaptation in the reuse of underutilised commercial buildings continues to inform his interest in retrofit, material innovation and low-carbon design.
Alan is an active member of the Fieldstudies Committee, currently researching bioregional material supply chains in Victoria to make more locally sourced materials viable. His practice extends from buildings to furniture and object design, exploring resourcefulness at multiple scales. In addition to Fieldstudies, Alan is the captain of our Archisoccer team and a member of the Country-Centred Design Committee.
