About Max:
Max joined Utile in 2024 to work on community focused projects. He has diverse experience across many different project types and processes, having worked on residences, workplaces, restaurants, and hospitality projects that included new construction, renovations, and fit-outs.
Regardless of what’s on the boards, Max emphasizes a collaborative approach to creating thoughtful spaces that engage both their environment and the material methods through which they are constructed. He also brings a range of woodworking and residential carpentry experience, often building study models and mockups for projects as part of the design process.
