About
I am an experienced interior architectural designer with expertise across residential, commercial, hospitality, and corporate spaces. I thrive on adapting to diverse briefs and design challenges, ensuring each project reflects the client’s vision. From concept to completion including design, technical detailing, and presentation. I’ve worked on projects all the way through to the installation stage, collaborating closely with clients to bring their ideas to life. I have extensive knowledge of AutoCad, SketchUp, Adobe Suit, Lumion, Enscape, Twinmotion, Vectorworks and currently navigating my way around Revit.
My design philosophy is deeply rooted in environmental consciousness. I am committed to using sustainable materials and practices that reduce carbon footprints while promoting biodiversity. This eco-didactic approach allows me to craft designs that are not only visually striking but also carry meaningful narratives. I believe in telling stories through materiality, atmosphere, style, and form, creating spaces that resonate emotionally and leave a lasting impression.
Travel has been a significant source of inspiration for me. Exploring cultures and environments from Europe to the Far East has shaped my appreciation for diverse design perspectives and fostered my passion for incorporating elements of the natural world into my work.
Interior design and architecture, to me, are ever-evolving disciplines that mirror our global society’s shifting landscapes and cultures. I am dedicated to creative exploration, personal development, and embracing new challenges, always striving to push boundaries and create meaningful, sustainable spaces that people love and connect with.
Chester zoo Eco-village Thesis
How can we change the way tourism can not only help climate change but also help conservation through sustainable architecture? A proposal to create a sustainable eco village at Chester Zoo to allow visitors to stay overnight. The site will consist of a four distinctive accommodations including a Welcome Building Bar and Bistro. Analysing Chester Zoo's existing proposed plans, these plans will be broken down and adapted to further maximise sustainable construction and green design practise whilst introducing parametric architecture. This strategy will increase the revenue stream to help Chester Zoo continue their conservation efforts to help the ecosystem in a changing climate. This thesis project will take into consideration the visitor experience but targeting the areas typically found in the tourism and hospitality industry that lead to excessive carbon footprint, and ways to tackle this through sustainable architecture. This method and analysis will hopefully propel passive design strategies, enhance user experience, create opportunity for educational purposes and be used as a green precedent study for future designers and architects in ways they can practise through lowering carbon footprint whilst designing and setting a positive sustainable example.
