I will drive a positive energy and professionalism into the team.

RED OR DEAD COLLABORATION
MY CHALLENGE WAS TO BROADEN RED OR DEAD’S APPEAL WHILE RETAINING ITS QUIRKY ETHOS. WE HAVE BEEN ASKED TO DESIGN A ‘SHOP WITHIN A SHOP’ FOR RED OR DEAD WITHIN A DEPARTMENT STORE ENVIRONMENT. IT MUST INCLUDE APPAREL, FOOTWEAR, SPECTACLE FRAMES AND ACCESSORIES. IT MIGHT ALSO INCLUDE PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS SUCH AS CARRIER BAGS, PACKAGING, FUTUTRE DESIGNS SUCH AS FURNITURE, TILL PROMOTIONS AND IN-STORE INTERVENTIONS THAT BOOST ITS PRESENCE WITHIN THE STORE.
PHOTOGRAPHY
IN MY A LEVEL COURSE I HAVE DONE PHOTOGRAPHS OF GRAFFITI. THE WORK WAS INSPIRED BY ARRON SISKIND AS MY MUSE/ARTIST. GRAFFITI SHOW MODERN ART IN IT USAGE.THEIR SELECTION OF COLOURS REPRESENT YOUNG PEOPLE’S FRUSTRATION AND THE YOUTH SPIRIT. THE USE OF LINES LINKS WITH THEIR USAGE OF TYPOGRAPHY.I HAVE WROTE ESSAY IN RELATION TO HOW AND WHY YOUTH WRITE THEIR INITIALS OR SPONTANEOUS SENTENCES ON WALLS.THIS IS ALL LINKED TO SOCIAL CLASS AND THEIR INTERACTIONS WITH THEIR FAVOURITE OR HATED PLACES IN THE CITY.
GRAPHICS
I HAVE DONE GRAPHICS A-LEVEL IN 2014 WHERE I HAVE BEEN FOCUSED ON GRAPHICS COLLABORATION WITH NIKE.IN ADDITION I HAVE DESIGNED AND FOCUSED FOR JUNIOR DESIGN. IN MY WORK I HAVE USED VARIETY OF COLOURS AND SHOW THE POWER OF KIDS MIND.MOREOVER I HAVE DONE QUESTIONNAIRE WHERE I HAVE ASKED KIDS AGE 6-11 WHICH ARE THEIR FAVOURITE COLOURS AND COME UP WITH A RESULT OF USING SIMPLE BUT VIVID COLOUR PALETTE.
MIF FESTIVAL
THIS UNIVERSITY PROJECT INVOLVE DEVELOPING IDEAS AND CONCEPTS WITH REGARDS TO MAKING ARTEFACTS AND ELEMENTS AT OBJECT, HUMAN AND ARCHITECTURAL SCALE; URBAN WAY NDING; NARRATIVE AND BRANDING, ALL FOR FESTIVAL SQUARE (FORMERLY ALBERT SQUARE). FESTIVAL SQUARE IS THE SOCIAL HUB OF THE MANCHESTER INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL AND IS HOME TO SEVERAL DESTINATIONS WHICH PROVIDE FOOD, ENTERTAINMENT AND A MEETING POINT DURING THE FESTIVAL. THE BBC ALSO USES THIS LOCATION TO LIVE BROADCAST FROM SO AS WELL AS WORKING WITH THE TEAM FROM MIF, OH OK AND PRACTISE ARCHITECTS, YOUR WORK MAY ALSO FEATURE ON TELLY!

MAJOR PROJECT
TO CREATE A CLINICAL SPACE WHICH WILL COMBINE BOTH, PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL AREAS FOR PEOPLE WITH AND WITHOUT HEART DISEASES. ALSO THE SPACE WILL PROVIDE INFORMATION FOR PEOPLE TO AVOID THE CONSEQUENCES OF BAD DIETING AND STRESS. MULTIFLOORED BUILDING IS REPRESENTING THE VARIATY OF AGES (18-45) IN PATIENTS AS WELL AS COSTUMERS. THIS PROJECT IS BASED ON MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCES IN EXISTING MEDICAL SPACES. AS A PROTAGONIST, I HAVE WROTE THE EMOTIONAL INVOLVEMENTS INSIDE MEDICAL PRACTICES ACROSS MANCHESTER. THIS QUALITATIVE DATA HAS HELPED ME TO DEVELOPED EMOTIWONAL ATTRACTION TO THE PROJECT WHICH INFLUENCED MY DESIGN PROCESS.

RESEARCH HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, HIGH CHOLESTEROL AND SMOKING ARE KEY RISK FACTORS FOR HEART DISEASE.
THE EXTERIOR CONTEXT IS TO MAKE THE BUILDING INQUISITIVE FOR THE OUTSIDERS.HOWEVER THE MAIN CONTEXT IS TO MAKE THE BUILDING WORKING WITH PEOPLES NEEDS RATHER THAN VISUAL AESTHETIC. THE EXTERIOR WILL STAY GLASS BASED TO MAKE THE INTERIOR VERY FLOODLIT. THE INTERIOR CONTEXT IS AIMED TO REDUCE THE MASSIVE OFFICE SPACES TO MORE INTIMATE SMALLER FLOORS. THE FLOORING SYSTEM IS DICTATING BUILDING FUNCTIONS. THE MAIN STRUC-

TURE IS MAKING THE LINK TO THE FUNCTIONALITY OF HUMAN BODY
I HAVE ENTERED THE COMPETITION CREATED BY ASPCA TO CREATE A POSTER FOR THE ANIMALS SUPPORT LANE.

BY ADJUSTING CONTRAST THE POSTER IS VERY DARK AND THIS LINK TO THE CONSEQUENCES OF PEOPLE’S ACTIONS IF WE WOULD NOT REACT TO ANIMALS VIOLENCE.
IN MY FIRST YEAR OF UNIVERSITY, I HAVE CREATED A BRANDING LOGO AND BUSINESS CARDS WHICH PROMOTE THE SPACE I HAVE CREATED IN THE AVILA HOUSE ON OXFORD ROAD. THIS PROJECT’S GOAL WAS TO ADAPT UNSEEN SPACE TO THE PLACE OF STUDENT NEEDS. IN MY INTERPRETATION, I HAVE CREATED A MULTICULTURAL DENTIST INTERIOR WHERE PEOPLE WOULD FEEL COMFORTABLE AND RELAXED.
