We are proud to announce the elevation of Interior Designer Jaana Bithell to Senior Associate and the promotion of Project Leader Nick Ng to Associate.
Since joining Studio Nine Architects, Jaana and Nick have both been invaluable members of the studio, each imparting their expertise and leadership qualities to the wider team.
Jaana has been a key member of our interiors team for the past eight years and has become a driving force in our leadership group. Her commitment to continuous improvement is evident in her approach—learning from past experiences, understanding successes, and identifying areas for growth. Her dedication to the industry was recognised with the National Association of Women in Construction SA Contribution to Design Award, she continues to push boundaries in the industry. Most recently, she led our latest hospitality project, Station Road, crafting an elevated dining experience that masterfully balances texture, tone, light, and shadow. This project is a true testament to her commitment to excellence, and we are proud to celebrate her well-deserved elevation to Senior Associate.
Nick joined our studio in 2022 and has quickly become a vital member of the architectural team, successfully leading our portfolio of major sporting and retail projects. With over twenty years of experience delivering national and international commercial developments, he thrives on managing complex, large-scale projects. His expertise and leadership are evident in the successful delivery of high-profile projects, including the recently completed Harbour Town EATS and Harpers Field Sports & Community. What sets Nick apart is his meticulous attention to detail, regardless of scale, while also prioritising strong client relationships. We are excited to see him continue to thrive in his new role as an Associate and a key member of the studio’s leadership team.
Together, Jaana and Nick have contributed significantly to the success of our studio. Their passion, knowledge, and commitment to excellence continue to inspire those around them, and we look forward to their growing impact in their respective leadership roles.
