Callie van der Merwe, Founding Director, Design Partnership Australia
Callie van der Merwe is the founding partner of Design Partnership in Australia and South Africa, a business-led design agency, specialising in Retail, Hospitality, Workplace and Services markets. Callie is a qualified architect and member of a number of Design institutes and Associations. He has also received many awards over the years, in South Africa, Australia and the Middle East.

In partnership with DNA Behavior International™, Deborah provides a suite of behavioural management solutions to help businesses “know, engage and grow” their executives, departmental and team leaders, employees and clients. Callie’s ‘Designing for Human Behaviour’ places ‘predictive human behavioural sets and sequencing’ at the heart of each design challenge, which maximises both the physical and emotional reward for the visitor and, by extension, meets the financial (and other) objectives of the owner. Both Callie and Deborah aim to alter the way we apply our understanding and approach to social spaces.
