Nicholas Grimes

Design Director

Design leadership at Place Studio is guided by Nick, whose experience across some of Australia’s most complex urban projects has shaped a disciplined architectural approach.

His career includes involvement in major developments such as Barangaroo South, One Sydney Harbour, Crown Sydney and Darling Quarter—projects where design ambition, coordination and delivery precision must operate in constant balance. Working within these environments reinforced the importance of maintaining design clarity while navigating the realities of large-scale construction.

As Design Director, Nick works closely with project teams to guide design thinking across the studio, ensuring ideas are developed with rigour, buildability and a strong architectural identity from early concept through to delivery.
