Nick Viner

Founder of work.place.create.

Nick is a Chartered Architect and has over twenty years’ experience in construction designing a myriad of building types across Europe and the United Kingdom. After a successful career in both large real estate firms and global architecture practices, he set up work.place.create. in 2016 with a desire to deliver the highest quality spaces that allow people to thrive. Nick has an innovative and pragmatic approach, which resonates with his long-standing clients. He tempers creativity with technical excellence and an eye for detail in the delivery of each and every project.

When he is not at work: One of Nick’s biggest passions is travel “Ten years ago my wife and I drove through California, stopping off at or two vineyards along the way. This sparked off another passion, which is the pursuit of amazing Californian wines to try!”.

Cardine Hollowell

Creative Director

Cardine joined work.place.create. as a Creative Director early into its inception following periods of employment at two high profile firms of architects and designers. Cardine leads the design process on all projects and leverages her fourteen years’ experience at every opportunity to deliver creative, efficient and transformative design solutions for her clients. She is adept at the full life cycle of projects and takes as much personal pride in delivering the final product on site as she does generating the initial concept.

And when she is not at work: Cardine is a qualified paddlesport coach and volunteers her time coaching young people and adults associated with the Sea Cadet Core in her role as Civillian Instructor. Cardine is an aficionado of live music and has seen an enviable list of top bands. Her attendance at gigs has tapered off recently, as her new puppy Luna has taken up a lot of Cardine’s free time.
