I began working with Patrick McKenna of Wabi Sabi in 2006; He remains a valuable component in my work today. I sought his services based on word of mouth and a strong portfolio. He displayed an architectural sensitivity to brief and context.

In a current climate of pressurised budget, he has shown a willingness to scrap at its coalface… negotiate.. develop and revisit detail – without compromising a global design intent. He comes armed with a ‘hands on’ approach and personable communication skills, which has allowed me to expend more of my time at the work/time intensive tender and construction stages.

Wabi Sabi’s technological expertise and command/handling of materials are unique to me in the context of ‘pop up’ CAD kitchen designers and glorified flat pack kitchens.
