Russell
has always been inspired by the combination of the tangible and the intangible, a fascination that continues to this day. It was therefore almost inevitable that his chosen career would be Architecture. As through design, it unites the physical qualities of built form, material application, response to the environment and applicable technology with the creative arts, mathematical theories of form and proportion, human emotional response and history. This dichotomy pervades everything he does whether it is work related or social.
With his 25 years’ experience he has delivered a wide range of landmark and award winning projects ranging from industrial, residential, retail, commercial and high end hospitality for clients from Africa, Asia, Europe and the Middle East. Clients include the V&A Waterfront, Old Mutual, Sew Eurodrive, Robertson and Cain, Jumeirah Group, One & Only Resorts, Southern Sun, Fairmont, Hilton, Emaar, Mediclinic, City Hospital and Diyar.
Russell’s passion is sailing and he has taken part in many world class races including ‘Fastnet’, ‘Cowes Regatta’, Cape Town to Rio and Cape Town to St. Helena to name but a few.
He continues sailing here at Dubai Offshore Sailing Club in his spare time on his yacht Sovereign.
