BArch (Hons), MArch, BOAQ #6282

Angus joined Orms in 2024, bringing international architectural experience from Australia across residential, commercial, and adaptive reuse projects. His portfolio includes high-rise apartment developments, heritage renovations, and commercial transformations. Angus approaches architecture with a focus on the relationship between people and place, balancing practical requirements with thoughtful design to create spaces that enhance user experience whilst responding sensitively to context.

What does ultrapractical mean to you? I find the happy pairing of people and place is a continually rewarding process that takes careful consideration and patience to see through properly. For me, being 'ultrapractical' is to endeavour that users enjoy the pleasures amongst the pragmatic. Architecture must respond to fundamental needs whilst elevating the human experience through thoughtful design. This approach requires balancing technical precision with empathetic understanding, creating solutions that work beautifully in practice while enhancing daily life.
