"The drive for innovation and excellence informs my creative process. In addition, after spending some years in an advancing manufacturing factory, I’m always concurrently thinking about production, assembly and construction."

STEVEN LAM

Prior to establishing Tektonik Architecture, Steven worked in a number of well known architecture offices in Sydney, designing and delivering predominantly complex mixed use projects. After 14 years of working overseas, Steven decided to bring his skillset back to his home country of Mauritius in order to contribute towards the building landscape in a rapidly developing property and building industry. Steven has excellent design and problem-solving skills across mixed-use, multi-residential, industrial and education sectors – and has worked across large-scale urban-design master-plans including creation of transport-oriented precinct all the way through to the design and delivery of large mixed-use developments. Key to this skill is Steven's ability to articulate design concepts to provide innovative and elegant solutions to complex architectural problems through all project stages. Steven graduated from the University of Sydney with Masters of Architecture (Hons) and has been awarded the Chancellor’s Committee Exchange Scholarship, the Dean’s International Merit Scholarship and the John Stephen Mansfield Prize in Urban Design.
