Emily Pearce

With over 20 years professional experience, Emily has been fortunate to work in some of Australia’s leading Architecture and Landscape Architecture studios as well as for The City of Melbourne. Having experience as both client and consultant, she has developed a unique breadth of experience, strong collaborative approach and passion for innovation and design excellence at every stage of the project.
