URBAN ARCHITECTURE

25 January 2023

Dear Sir/Madame

Patrick Chiu recommendation letter

To whom it may concern,

Patrick Chiu worked at BurtonHamfelt urban architecture from April of 2022 up and until December 2022. In that period Patrick developed well and accepted every challenge with enthusiasm and determination. Patrick grew in his professional development, from acquiring an intuitive sense of design skills to managing deadlines with complex urban projects. Colleagues enjoyed working with Patrick because of his ability to share responsiblities effectively with all parties involved in the building process.

Since being at our studio Patrick has contributed to the following ongoing projects:

• Mixed use innercity housing project Hoogoorddreef for ca. 40.000 m2 in Amsterdam Poort area in South East Amsterdam, NL. Responsibilities were, 3D design exterior and interior drawings in Revit and Rhino and 2d plans / schemes. Design phase: definitive design.

• Mixed use urban design project for 35.000 m2 in Wasserstadt Hannover, Germany 3D design massing and 2d plans / schemes. Design phase: schematic design.

• Wooden modular housing prototype on top of existing buildings (Optopper). As prototype design and built for large scale national real estate event. Design drawings and concept diagrams in 2D and 3D. Design phase: schematic design until realization.

• Mixed use urban design studies exploring massing options and development scenarios in various cities in the Netherlands such as Den Haag and Diemen. 3D studies en calcu lations. Design phase: schematic design

The reason for not prolonging his contract being that there was not enough certainty of work in the office in the near future and Patrick future plan to move back to Hong Kong. My expectations are that Patrick will be able to meet the new challenges and responsibilities required of him in his next professional adventure with the same enthusiasm and commitment that he displayed while employed at my office.

Sincerely,

Burton Hamfelt architect/owner
