- Registered Architect, Queensland
- Green Star Accredited Professional, Green Building Council of Australia
Chad’s passion for design has been applied to his over 10 years of experience in the architectural industry. During that time he has gained experience in areas ranging from Pre-Design Research to Construction Administration, working on a variety of projects including educational facilities, corporate headquarters, small and large churches, architectural homes, retail centres, aged care facilities, multi-residential, community halls, crematoriums, and urban visions.
Chad’s ability to utilise the power of 3D digital modelling in the early design stages enables clients to test and experience options at a very early stage. This same digital visualisation process presents opportunities sometimes lost in a more traditional approach, while empowering the client with the security of a known outcome.
Chad possesses extensive experience in designing for Green Star projects, having been the Project Architect for The Port Office, the first facility in Australia to receive a 5 Star Green Building Council of Australia Version 3 rating. He is currently the Design Architect for the 5 Star Engineering and Technology Centre in Nundah, and also fulfilled this role on the 5 Star Environmental Protection Agency Headquarters in Manly.
Chad has been a part of ThomsonAdsett since 1999, and he became a Principal of ThomsonAdsett in 2011.
Chad believes every project is an opportunity to enhance the experience of the people who inhabit it – be they workers, visitor, or residents. Good design must be more than just a practical resolution of the brief. It is about striving to bring magic into the spaces people occupy.
