Joy Nazzari
How did you join the property industry?
I started my career in equity research at a tech investment bank and then jumped into Silicon Valley. I moved to London with the dotcom boom and eventually helped architectural visualisation gurus Hayes Davidson launch a software company for large-scale developments. The firm’s founder, Alan Davidson, put me in charge of the software company as well as his emerging branding agency subsidiary. I then struck out on my own with a colleague to create dn&co.
What does your job entail?
I co-founded a new proptech business mid-pandemic called Showhere. It’s a presentation platform that enables property businesses to create compelling stories about places in order to help them sell and lease space. I also run a branding and design agency, dn&co, which specialises in place and culture. We have been behind the reinvention of some of the UK’s largest neighbourhoods and developments including Broadgate, St James’s and the Royal Dock

The three finalists were chosen from a 17-strong longlist representing a diverse range of emerging practices selected for their talents and ability to deliver a high-quality concept for the new building.
The contest was launched in August a month after Homes England awarded £148 million for land and infrastructure works for Argent Related’s Brent Cross Town scheme in north west London. The project has been masterplanned by Allies and Morrison, with architects including Squire and Partners, Maccreanor Lavington, and Glenn Howells also designing plots.
