Michael commenced his employment with Liquid Architecture in June 2009, and is currently studying at UTS where in 2013 he will complete the Master of Architecture degree. Michael completed his Bachelor of Design in Architecture in 2011 and began teaching architectural history at UTS in the same year. Since commencing his studies in 2008, Michael's work has been presented at each of the end of year exhibitions. He received the Deans List Award for his design work in 2009 and in 2010 was part of a collaborative group whose master plan for Leppington was exhibited at Customs House Sydney. Michael's individual proposal for Leppington train station also won second prize in a competition run by the TCA.

Michael's present architectural interests are focused on strategies for architecture in providing solutions for global issues, ranging from emergency housing to investigations into nomadic-style housing. He is also passionate about looking at ways to reduce the impact of populations on various ecologies and how the materials and resources in the existing built environment may best be reused.

Vanessa graduated with honours from the University of Technology, Sydney in 2009 with a double degree in Interior Design and International studies.

For her major project, she was the 2008 winner of the best Graphisoft ArchiCAD design from the Faculty of Design, Architecture and Building, UTS, and her project was also featured in the Australian New Express Daily.

During her time at University Vanessa spent one year in Kofu, Japan nurturing her interest in cultural, social and environmental sustainability through design. Her present design focus is using natural materials, and harnessing natural lighting and ventilation within traditional methods of construction so as to blur the lines of interior and exterior spaces.

Upon graduation Vanessa worked as the in-house designer at FY2K designer furniture showroom, where she was able to develop her knowledge of quality finishes and manufacturing.

Vanessa joined the Liquid Architecture team in August 2010 with focus on materials, colours and functionality of interior spaces.
