Daniel Ash

Daniel Ash founded Daniel Ash Architects in 2009, rebranded as Fraxinus Architecture in 2022, and has since established a considerable body of work including city and country homes, townhouse and apartment developments, interior fit outs and small commercial works.

Daniel gained his architectural experience spending 5 years working for a number of practices in the UK followed by a number of years working at Jolson in Melbourne. His experience spans projects of all scales and sectors but with a primary focus on high-end residential and multi-residential projects.

Daniel leads a youthful and energetic team who bring together years of international and local experience over a range of building types. The design strength of the director and the team lies in an ability to create beautiful projects in a number of styles and eras, often finding a beautiful balance of varying eras and styles within the one project.

Daniel’s aim is to create beautifully considered projects which have been specifically designed for the end user, reflecting their brief and their own aesthetic style.
