Stillness through Time and Space architecture & urbanism Programs: CAD, Sketchup, Vray, Photoshop Master’s Thesis Prague, Czechia 2019 Diploma with distinction
The historic city wall that separated Central Prague and the present Karlin area is long gone but the functional character still exists in the form of the magistrala (highway) which cuts through the site, damaging both the horizontal and vertical planes. This magistrala, among other issues, create a disconnection between the people and the site. The only cultural landmark is detached from the fabric and the site segregates the two urban fabrics it is surrounded by, thus making it difficult for the people to access the site. The project reinvigorates the potential of the site that was lost due to the current situation.

architecture school Programs: CAD, Sketchup, Vray, Photoshop Bachelor project Prague, Czechia 2017 Golden Roubik Award Nominee
By incorporating a float concept the separating of functions is clear and the spaces in between can be used for breathing space - with views towards the waters. To counteract the simplicity of form the functions inhibiting the spaces inside is of the opposite. It is irregular, it is disorganized. But with this the concept of static and dynamic can be enhanced further. Thus creates a school of dualities: order and chaos, regular and irregular.
Collective Fragmentation urbanism

Golden Roubik Award Nominee
The project aims to bring about urban regeneration through radical design which focuses on public spaces and pedestrian hierarchy over cars. The existing buildings feels isolated and the street grid focuses too much on car access. By connecting focal points and tram stops the new street grid can give way for pedestrian access to the site. New blocks are created with access to public courtyards and views to the river to revitalise the site.

Smichov Facade work at Schindler Seko Architects Supervisor: Janek Schindler schindler@schindlerseko.cz Prague, Czechia 2020
The project is an office building in the proposed Smichov masterplan and I was tasked to come up with reworking the facade, which was considered too regular. In my proposal, I designed several facade variations that would function well depending on which facade they are located. The main facade follows a zigzag pattern in the volume as well as the glass windows, to imply the flow of water concept, which serves as the main concept of the whole masterplan.
Staromestska Historical courtyard renovation at Schindler Seko Architects Supervisor: Janek Schindler schindler@schindlerseko.cz Prague, Czechia 2019
The project is a renovation in the center of Old Town Prague. I assisted a senior in the full project documentation, beginning from the design, then 3d archicad modelling, and the publication of drawings and documents to be handed in for planning permit and heritage approval. I focused on the courtyard of the historical building, refurbishing it by removing the existing structure, seen as a obtrusive, and designed a unitary structure, consisting of an elevator and a roof.
Dock in Interior work at Schindler Seko Architects Supervisor: Janek Schindler schindler@schindlerseko.cz Prague, Czechia 2019
I was also involved in the Dock in projects , where I worked on scheduling and following protocols. On the design side, I rendered several interior spaces, and proposed alternatives by using different colors and textures.

A Resilient Refuge
emergency operations center Competition | Kaira Looro Programs: Archicad, Photoshop Prague, Czechia 2020
Our design creates a space that acts as a catalyst between the indoor and the outdoor movements of the people. For the revitalization of the community who has been affected by crises, the project is designed to allow expansion, such as building houses and schools connected to the central EOC by the courtyards which build a pattern that the community can grow organically from. The placement of each building allows close proximity but also a literal center to evolve, encouraging, and encompassing the gatherings that will naturally take place in the camp.

The kanikonna is a symbolic flower to the region of Kerala. It represents beauty and vigour, used by the people for medicinal and cultural religious purposes. The flower is attractive owing to its yellow color and it grows abundantly, with the idea that in togetherness anything can be realized.

This is the concept of the new community housing in floodstricken Uliyanoor: seeing the flower as an identity that even during the hard times people can look at the kanikonna as a symbol of beauty, vigour and togetherness. It is urbanization that flourishes.
Ode to Symmetry - A Journey castle rejuvenation
Competition | Common Ruins Programs: Sketchup, Photoshop Prague, Czechia 2020
This is a journey about appreciating the past while also instilling conflicting elements that produce a dialectic on methods of preservation. Such element that is contradictory to the established Romantic ideology is the concept of symmetry. As it is known, Romanticism thrives for the emotional and the unusual, an opposite of symmetry where its order lies in harmony and rationalism. But by that approach, the method of preservation is acted upon.
