Salmond graduated from Victoria University in 1980, and then worked for Athfield Architects, collaborating there with Clare Athfield.[3] She was the founding member, with three other architects, of the Wellington practice Architecture+. While a director there, Salmond won the competition held to design the Pātaka Art + Museum in Porirua, which enabled her practice to move towards working on larger-scale buildings.[3]
In the late 1980s, Salmond relocated to Wānaka and established the practice of Salmond Architecture there.[2] Since its founding, Salmond's practice has focused on improving the quality of local housing, and advocating for reducing house size to improve their thermal performance.[3] This interest is reflected with her developing structural insulated panels, for use in local housing.[3]
In 2019, she was made a Distinguished Fellow of the New Zealand Institute of Architects, in recognition of her contribution to New Zealand architecture.[4] As of 2023, she has been an assessor for the New Zealand Registered Architects Board for more than 15 years.[3]
