Fred Chaney - Architect and Director, Cox Architecture

Fred Chaney joined Cox Howlett and Bailey Woodland, the Perth studio of Cox Architecture, in 2008 after six years as a director of Cox Architects and Planners in Melbourne. Mr Chaney has a long-term interest in sustainable design, and has been actively involved with the GBCA's WA program. His professional activities included occasional lecturing and tutoring at the School of Architecture at the University of Western Australia and membership of WA Planning Commission Committee for the Peel Region.

"Board membership of the GBCA is an excellent platform through which to understand and communicate benchmarks and achievements in environmental design and to ensure that WA equals and exceeds the performance of other states around Australia," Mr Chaney says.
