Olivia Potter

Architect

B.Envs (Arch), M.Arch

Registered Architect TAS #1557

Melbourne Studio

Olivia joined our studio in 2022, bringing with her a wealth of design experience in the residential, commercial, transport, health and sport sectors. Her interest in the intersection between sustainability, people's wellbeing and architecture allows her to place both the human experience and the environment at the centre of her designs.

While at Cumulus, Olivia has worked across a number of sectors and project stages - from project inception at the master planning level to project delivery. Her holistic approach results in considered, ecologically-focused designs aimed at creating stronger relationships between people, built spaces and the natural environment.

Olivia pairs her Cumulus work with voluntary work in the wider architectural community. In 2025, she joined the New Architects Melbourne (NAM) Committee, and has previously been a member of the Emerging Architects and Graduate Network (EmAGN) Committee in Hobart.

A landscape photograph of an arid, open terrain at golden hour, with long shadows stretching across the ground. Figures are visible only as elongated silhouettes cast over the uneven earth. The low sun creates a warm, expansive atmosphere, with a vast horizon and pale sky in the distance. A close-up photograph of vivid red sea anemones clustered beneath a rocky overhang in a shallow tide pool. Their soft, tentacle-like forms spread outward into the clear water, contrasting sharply against the sandy seabed and textured rock above. A landscape photograph of a grassy field at golden hour, illuminated in warm light beneath a dramatic sky. A bright rainbow arcs down toward the horizon, with a faint secondary rainbow visible alongside it, creating a striking contrast between the glowing land and the darker clouds overhead.
