Rebecca Mills represents a new wave of place makers. With degrees in interiors, spatial design, and public communication, she thinks both technically and conceptually about place.

In 2017, Rebecca won prizes for Design Communication and Rising Property Professional in New South Wales with Savills. Her star has been rising ever since.

Today she is a leading proponent of Place Visioning – a growing practice that involves working alongside developers and government to articulate big ideas for places.

As a lead Strategist in Frost*collective’s Place team, Rebecca blends techniques such as empathic listening, persona and needs states definition, and spatial skills, from a range of disciplines including human-centred design, communications and UX design. She thinks in a 360-degree way about places, rather than through the lens of any one design discipline.

Rebecca is currently leading strategies for large developments such as Sydney’s Darling Park, a progressive workplace in Shenzhen and major projects adjacent to Sydney’s new airport. She’s passionate about Place Visioning’s ability to set attuned directions for places in the future, and how these idea-led places help to avoid the mistakes of the past and unlock stronger solutions for tomorrow.
