Shaun Miller
Principal / Brisbane Architect
Shaun grew up on a tea plantation in South Africa, and the art and methodical process of crafting the perfect cup of tea is exactly how he approaches his architectural design.
He gained his Bachelor of Architecture with Honors and Bachelor of Arts (Honors) in Architecture and Environmental Design degrees in the UK. He commenced working as an architect in South Africa, focussing on private residential properties and retail developments.
In 1995 Shaun moved to the UK, and was Project Architect for a number of multi-million dollar projects for industrial complexes, office complexes, colleges and a leisure centre. He was also visiting tutor at the University of Nottingham, sharing his expertise with the next generation of architects.
Shaun migrated to Brisbane Australia in 2000 to follow the sun and to make the most of our fabulous lifestyle. He was Project Architect for iconic developments including The Georgian on George St in Brisbane, and the Cairns City Port mixed use development in Cairns Hotel. He was also involved as an architectural team member in the projects for Riverpark Masterplan, Logan Cultural Centre, Brisbane Magistrates Court and 214 Margaret Street.
In 2004, Shaun moved to Tasmania where he was Project Architect for The Hazards 5-star resort in Coles Bay, as well as being involved in a team designing a primary school and the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery Master Plan.
Shaun moved back to Brisbane in 2010, when he founded Infuse Design. The primary focus of Infuse Design has been the refurbishment and extension of existing homes to create stunning liveable spaces. Brisbane properties he has designed include properties at Samford, Ascot, Wooloowin, Hamilton, Windsor, Thornlands and Wilston.
Now the father of 5 very energetic children, Shaun has personal experience of what works and what doesn’t in a family home, which is why he has chosen to focus on helping other Brisbane families create the perfect home to suit their lifestyle.
Shaun is registered with the Board of Architects Queensland and a member of the Institute of Architects.
Why choose us to design your dream home?
Family Focussed
Your home needs to reflect the changing stages and needs of your family – from creating a safe haven for toddlers to explore their world, through to fostering independence in teenagers. A building is not truly a building until you add people to it.
Climate Responsive Design
We make the most of summer breezes while also creating cosy and warm living spaces in winter. Our energy efficient designs mean less heating and cooling costs over the long term.
Personal Service & Attention
All projects are personally directed and overseen by our Principal Architect – Shaun Miller which means you will always get the direct benefit of his decades of experience.
Exceptional Design
We create truly stunning, yet immensely practical and liveable designs that make the most out of your site and your budget.
Creativity & Innovation
We are full of great suggestions on ways to solve issues, maximise your space and create the flow you are looking for in your home.
Cost & Time Accuracy
We don’t believe in hidden surprises, which is why we generate accurate cost and time projections to give you certainty and peace of mind.
Collaboration
We believe in a collaborative approach. We will never steamroll you into ideas or present you with “take it or leave it” thinking. We believe that the best outcomes can only come from open communication and exchanging of ideas. We work through a number of sketch ideas and “what I really meant was …” meetings to help tease out and refine your deepest wishes for your home.
Budget Conscious
We understand budgets are a fact of life and not optional extras. We help you create the best solution within your budget, recommending options including staging, DIY strategies and competitive tendering for products and fittings which mean you get the best possible rates.
Genuine Listening
We listen and observe more than we speak. We help you articulate your wishes, thoughts and ideas, and sift them with you to find the true essence of what you are looking for. Effective listening takes time and is never rushed.
