ABOUT ME
I am currently seeking a Part II position to enable me to progress onto attaining full qualification. Working on projects during my masters has helped develop an appreciation for a style of architecture focusing on integrating landscape and architecture.
I have worked on a wide range of projects but take particular interest in mixed use and residential projects, focusing on user friendly design but also aiming to create design which is concious of the environment. Good organisation and time management has enabled me to further my self development as a young architect, along with my quick ability to learn from peers.
Learning along the 5 Year journey has developed my understanding in the field but also confidence in leading group projects every year, communicating ideas to clients and peers. Thus, I am keen to expand my knowledge in the working environment to see my potential.

Slow Schiedam
Location: Schiedam, The Netherlands
MA Year 2, Semester 1
Slow Schiedam is an urban design project which offers an “alternate culture where inhabitants of the new district enjoy a slower-paced environment”. The area will be home to diverse residents with work opportunities, leisure facilities and various amenities to sustain the community based on the principles of the 15-minute city.
Connected greenery stitched throughout the site create a garden festival-type sequence of public spaces, celebrating the historical significance of the Dekuyper and Nolet Distilliries, which are still crucial to the area.

8 PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS/SOLAR PANELS
The solar panels are placed on the existing green roofs, with the roofs positioned at an angle to maximise the sunlight shining on the panels, the sunlight will then be used as a source of energy to be converted into energy to use within the building - electricity and heating. This allows for a reduction in the carbon footprint, also aiding in a reduction of costs.
4 RAINWATER HARVESTING
The design collects rainwater from the permeable surfaces of the green roofs which then recycle the water to use for the facilities within the units for greywater. The water can also be used to help water the deciduous trees in and around the site to help maintain the landscape without any waste.
3. RAINWATER CALCULATION
Total Roof Area = 601m2 x 796 (Annual Rainfall Northwest) x 0.75 (Rainfall Coefficient) x 0.9 (Filter Coefficient) = Litres Per Annum x 0.05 (Tank Size) = 16,145.865 Litres
Storage Tank around 17,000 Litres is required.

PROJECT INFO
Location: Princes Dock, Liverpool
Year 3 Semester 2
The scheme is designed to facilitate for an environment where the public voice can be heard within a parliamentary setting, the main building would host the debating chamber with a public platform setting also, a library, meeting rooms, press chamber and a cafe facing the dock.
The demonstration space acts as a means for communal gathering too. This is at the south end of the site due to it receiving the most daylight during the day.

SCHEME ON SITE
SITE HISTORY - RIVERSIDE STATION
The Riverside Station surrounding the site is apparent in both plans originally opening in 1895.
The station interrupts the site in both plans, hence we can see that it was initially used as a transport hub for the city centre with surrounding area used for depots, marine offices and receiving houses.

RECENT HISTORY
A significant difference seen from the 20’s, 50’s plans is that the princes dock which was extended to the right of the site has now decreased in size and only fills to the edge of the site.
Riverside station had been demolished in 1971, hence it is not present within the plan. The only major difference from the 90’s to today is that there has been a clear route introduced within the site to help transport goods to and from the landing stage terminal more efficiently. 1990 2020
