Benjamin, a Director, holds nearly 20 years of experience in all facets of architectural practice. Since graduating from the University of Melbourne’s School of Architecture, Benjamin has led the design of many of the practice’s architecture and masterplanning projects.
Working between the Farrells offices in London and Hong Kong, Benjamin played an integral role in much of the practice’s large-scale work across Europe and Asia. His holistic approach to design is rooted in the local context of a particular project. This is exemplified in London’s Swiss Cottage revitalisation, where existing structures of architectural significance were retained and enhanced with new public spaces that enjoyed immediate popularity.
In Asia, Benjamin has married this sensitive placemaking approach to the astonishing high-rise development schemes that define China’s growing economy. His expertise in mixed-use transit-oriented development was borne out in the Guangzhou South Railway Station and the New Delhi Station masterplan. Super high-rise schemes include Shenzhen’s KK100, Beijing’s China Zun, Vattanac Capital in Phnom Penh, and Evergrande IFC in Jinan. Time after time, Ben’s deft combination of stunning architecture and careful urban design has produced mixed-use destinations renowned for vitality, beauty, and multifaceted complexity.

Driven by the awareness that the disciplines of urban design and architecture should relate to each other, she plays a proactive role in linking the two opposing scales of projects – from urban to building, from city to living room.
She is a wanderlust traveller and believes that every place gives unique opportunities to explore new settings, discover new cultures and food.
