Matt’s entire career has been dedicated to high-end construction, specialising in diverse areas such as basement construction, custom prototyping of materials and designs, and high-end joinery finishes. His expertise extends to digital technical detailing, ensuring that all aspects of a project are thoroughly considered and resolved before any work commences on-site.
