Felice Burrows
Felice is a passionate advocate for the principle of paying it forward, driven by her commitment to making a positive impact on others. With a diverse skillset and experience, she actively fosters connections among individuals, seeking to instigate transformative change in their lives. With her architectural expertise and connective mindset, she strives to create meaningful spaces that embrace diverse voices and cultures, extending the spirit of paying it forward throughout the community.
Felice is a registered Architect and Director of Architects&Co., a small female-led architectural and interior design practice based in Perth, Western Australia, she is also a keen adventurer – often seeking the thrill of a remote hike or mountain to ground her. Central to her practice's focus is ‘hands-on’ Education Architecture, an area that resonates deeply with Felice due to her upbringing in rural New Zealand, which instilled in her an inherent understanding of the value of small communities and the significance of remote settings.
Motivated by her desire to make a greater difference, in 2019, Felice volunteered with TAP in Andhra Pradesh, building Harivillu 2. This immersive experience proved to be profoundly transformative, shaping her life's trajectory. Since then, Felice has nurtured a steadfast connection with the Anantapur community and remains passionately involved in the upcoming anganwadi projects within the region.
