Building Designers Association of Victoria (BDAV) has announced that Dominique Hunter has been named president of the Association.
After a two-year term, former president Lindsay Douglas has passed the baton to Hunter to lead the Association as the 17th president. Hunter will work closely with vice president Ingrid Hornung and treasurer Peter Lombadozzi to support building designers and the wider design professional community.
Hunter brings more than 20 years ’ design expertise and industry knowledge to the role, and has served on the Committee of Management for 12 years, having held both the treasurer and vice president positions.
The incoming president says she is delighted to have been appointed to lead the organisation and is looking forward to driving the BDAV’s long-term objectives.
“I am passionate about creating efficient design solutions, great business management and the broader design industry. I am deeply honoured to lead the BDAV’s Committee of Management,” says Hunter.
“I’m excited to work with the BDAV members to expand the organisation’s offerings and support designers to create strong, sustainable designs.”
Hunter’s ambition is to help the Association shape a cohesive design industry, built on teamwork and collaboration among all design parties. She will drive the celebration of good building design through education, advocacy and communication.
Inspired by classic design, Hunter’s expertise lies in space planning and creating an optimal living space that maximises the surrounding environment with sustainable features.
Hunter is the founder and design director at Hunter & Richards and is a Victorian Registered Building Practitioner.
