Clearly the product of UPE/COI (created by an SPA and overly promotional in tone), this article is refbombed with no fewer than 74 references and they're an impressive looking bunch at that - until you start digging down when you are faced with a series of press releases, interviews, promotional pieces and 'awards' that are as routine in the world of architecture as the trade magazines that award them. You could argue "multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" on the sheer number of sources presented alone, but they are by no means reliable or independent. An architect, doing what architects do - but with clearly an unusual flair for self-promotion. Alexandermcnabb (talk) 07:28, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Strong Delete carpet ref-bombing is a thing now. Wow, one of the more notable cases for non-notability we've seen. Look at all those sources confirming this person exists... Absolutely non-notable. Nothing in any sort of RS found. Oaktree b (talk) 13:27, 28 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
