What drew you to modular construction?

I became interested in modular construction while working with bathroom pods in my previous role. Modscape’s approach of building entire structures, rather than just components, really stood out to me. It’s where the industry is going, especially in Australia where labour costs are so high. Technology improves productivity, making the whole building process far more efficient.

What’s something you’ve learned at Modscape that’s surprised you?

I’ve been impressed with how structured Modscape’s processes are. The company doesn’t rely on any one person to move things along. Here, the system is setup to support the whole team, which allows the company to grow and run efficiently.

How do you unwind after a long day?

I usually go to the gym in the morning, whereas in the evenings I prefer low intensity activities like stretching or Pilates. I love playing golf, so with summer coming, I’m hoping to fit in a few rounds after work while it’s still light outside. It’s a great way to relax and recharge.

What drew you to modular construction?

I believe modular construction is the future, especially in a growing country like Australia. It offers quick, high-quality solutions, which is essential as the population increases. I’d done some modular work years ago, and when the opportunity with Modscape came up, I saw the potential and wanted to be part of it.

What’s something you’ve learned about the industry that’s surprised you?

The sheer potential of modular construction in Australia. The scale of projects we’re involved in, and how much modular can achieve, has been a real eye-opener.

How would you describe a typical day at Modscape?

Every day is different. I’m on-site working with the team on various projects, from high-end homes to larger developments. The variety keeps things exciting, and I get to wear a lot of hats, which I enjoy.

Steven brings a well-rounded perspective to each project, having managed costs for both client and builder. His passion for building runs deep, sparked by early influences and solidified through years of hands-on experience across Australia.

What were you doing before you came to Modscape?

I started as a Quantity Surveyor, focusing on cost management for clients, particularly in commercial projects like schools and fire stations. After a few years, I wanted to understand more of the builder’s side, so I transitioned to an estimator role with a fitout company before eventually joining Modscape.

How did you get into construction?

I was inspired by my mum, who was heavily involved in building houses back in Vietnam. She managed the design and construction of several homes, and I got to witness the process firsthand. Even though I initially studied chemistry, I realised my passion was in construction, so I made the switch.

What drew you to modular construction?

My first exposure to modular construction was during my time as a Quantity Surveyor, working on projects like kindergartens and schools. I was impressed by the efficiency and how much of the work could be done offsite.

What’s something you’ve learned at Modscape that surprised you?

I was surprised by how different the installation process is in modular construction. Most of the work is completed in the factory, then transported to site for installation. It’s a stark contrast to traditional construction, where everything happens on-site, and it really changes the way you approach costing. I also didn’t expect to be working on projects all over Australia, from Victoria to Queensland, which has been an exciting challenge.

How do you unwind after a long day?

I stay pretty active after work. I run in the mornings, play badminton, and practice Brazilian jiu-jitsu. When I’m sparring or playing a match, I’m completely focused – it’s a great way to unwind.

What inspired you to start a career in construction/design?

The idea of creating something that could last forever and be enjoyed by others really drew me in. Plus, I’ve been surrounded by people in the industry—engineers, landscapers, sustainability consultants, and project managers—so it was only a matter of time before I caught the construction bug.

Any advice you would give to your younger self or anyone starting out?

Don’t rush into things. Take a moment to get your bearings before diving in—that way, you give yourself the best chance to succeed.

Most memorable project you’ve worked on?

I’ve been lucky to work across both the Commercial and Residential sides of Modscape.

Any advice you would give to your younger self or anyone starting out?

Construction can be overwhelming, but breaking things down piece by piece—just like Modscape’s modular design approach—makes it manageable. Good time management is key. Focus on each part of the puzzle, and everything will come together.

Tell us something we don’t know about you…

I probably shouldn’t admit this to my prank-loving colleagues, but I have globophobia—yes, I’m terrified of balloons!

My Favourite…

Sports team – Whoever’s playing against the teams that my family and friends support!
Movie – Too many to count! Pirates of the Caribbean, Shutter Island, Changeling—basically anything with Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie, or Johnny Depp.

What inspired you to start a career in architecture?

Ever since I can remember I have always had a fascination with how things go together, from playing with Lego as a kid, to working on cars with my dad growing up. This quickly translated into a strong interest in design and construction and the relationship they share and the influence good design can have on the constructability and quality of the outcome, plus modules and Lego share a lot of similarities!

Any advice you would give to anyone starting out?

Never stop learning, and never be scared to explore new ideas.

With experience spanning continents, Jai’s background has equipped him well for his role at Modscape. After moving from Scotland to Australia, he’s embraced modular construction, bringing fresh insights to the team.

What were you doing before you came to Modscape?

I moved to Australia two years ago from Scotland, where I worked as a Quantity Surveyor on public and private sector projects.  When I arrived here, I naturally found myself working as a Contract Administrator to deliver a Secondary & Specialist School in Melbourne.

How did you get into construction?

During my final year of high school, there were plans for a full demolition and rebuild of my school campus. I had been applying for university at the time, but this was a chance to gain hands-on experience while earning a degree. By the time I graduated, I had a solid six years of work experience, along with a degree in Quantity Surveying.

What drew you to prefabrication?

I was intrigued by how closely people work together. As an industry, we’re so often divided – different stakeholders, project teams, engineers, designers, and contractors. It’s rare to be able to implement lessons learnt or build relationships beyond the project.

What’s something you’ve learned about the industry that’s surprised you?

The pace of modular construction is quite remarkable – 12 weeks compared to a typical two-year program for traditional construction. The ability to learn and improve within such a short timeframe has been eye-opening.

How have you found Queensland as a place to work and live?

Queenslanders love to start early and finish early – everyone wants to go out and enjoy the sun. It’s a great lifestyle.

How do you unwind after a long day?

Lately, I’ve been prioritising fitness—getting back into running, swimming, and spending time at the gym. Living in a new city has also been a great excuse to explore local bars, restaurant and hidden beaches.

What drew you to modular construction?

I was frustrated with the slow adoption of sustainable practices in traditional construction. Modular offers a faster and more efficient approach that aligns with my values.

What’s something you’ve learned about the industry that’s surprised you?

What were you doing before you came to Modscape?

I was a project manager in Queensland for a company that did industrial warehouses.

How did you get into construction?

I was a tomboy. I always liked things that were more technical. Because I loved maths, my first choice was economics. But when applying to university, I realised I wanted to see something more tangible at the end of the day, rather than just paperwork. I got into construction and never looked back.

What drew you to modular construction?

I love a challenge, and it was something new and different. I’m always drawn to excitement, adventure, and change… I changed countries, changed states, and changed companies. Why not change the way we build?

What’s something you’ve learned at Modscape that surprised you?

I’m surprised how a company can be so diverse, culturally, without it being its main goal. A lot of people preach on how diverse they are. But when you come to Modscape, you see people from different backgrounds, different nationalities, different experience levels, and it all works as a team. Modscape focuses on capabilities, and this naturally attracts people from different backgrounds.

How do you unwind after a long day?

I let my kids watch a comedy and just enjoy their giggles. I sit with my husband, maybe have a coffee or a glass of wine, and take in their laughter.

What’s your role at Modscape and what do you love about it?

As the residential interior designer,  I love seeing the uniqueness of each project we work on, and how the design evolves and emphasises the best elements of modular building.

What inspired you to start a career in design?

Design has always inspired me, from art, to fashion, interiors, architecture, and music. I think it’s all very connected. The interior architecture of a building is very important in enhancing a space – it’s more than just soft furnishing or paint colours. You can create a mood or ambience in a space by working with different materials, lighting, and flow.

Any advice you would give to your younger self or anyone starting out?

Just do what makes you happy! Don’t follow a career path because that’s what your meant to do, its your life so find work that nourishes you.

If you could switch your job with anyone else within Modscape, whose job would you want?

Hmm, I don’t think I would to be honest! But I wouldn’t mind swapping with the factory team for a day, I think I could pick up some useful building skills and maybe even drive the crane!

If it’s a dwelling, Lewis is on top of it, managing every project from the factory floor to handover. As a morning person, he’s often the first to arrive each day, ensuring everything runs smoothly. And while he’s a die-hard Collingwood supporter, we don’t hold that against him.

There are a lot of talented and experienced leaders in the industry. I’ve always found the best way to improve and grow is through observing how these leaders operate and incorporate that into my own day-to-day role.

Most memorable project you’ve worked on so far?

The current project we’re undertaking with our client, Qbuild. Modscape are assisting the Qbuild team with an ‘uplift’ programme, which aims to upskill trainees and apprentices in QLD and further promote the benefits of modern methods of construction in Australia.

Ancestors. I recently signed up to ancestory.com to find out about my family history which spans back to the early 1600s in Northhamptonshire, England.

What’s the best concert you’ve been to?

Embarrassingly, the only concert I have ever been to is for Drake in 2019 – so that would be the best!

If you were stuck on an island what three things would you bring?

Moreton bay bugs, brioche rolls, and Kewpie mayonnaise.

I’ve always loved the process of learning how to make things previously making jewellery, and I was interested in how to build much bigger things. I’m inspired to create a more sustainable future.​​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​​Any advice you would give to your younger self or anyone starting out?​​​​​​​​

Simply, get started!​​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​​If you could switch your job with anyone else within Modscape, whose job would you want?​​​​​​​​

Nobody – I’m excited to be using my engineering and design studies to help improve the way we manufacture buildings so that they’re more efficient and sustainable.

​​​Would you rather meet your ancestors or descendants?​​​​​​​​

My descendants – I’m more interested to find out where we are going then where we have been.​​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​​What’s the best concert you’ve been to?​​​​​​​​

It’s got to be the first Meredith Music Festival post Covid.​​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​​If you were stuck on an island what three things would you bring?​​​​​​​​

Snacks, a surfboard, and a boat.
