I am a Graduate of Architecture after the completion of my Master of Architecture Degree at the University of Melbourne. Throughout my education I have developed a passion for architecture and sustainable design practices, with a particular interest in biomimicry. I studied multidisciplinary subjects, which I believe is important in design, as collaborative work innovation, and creates a unique solution to problems.

CERTIFICATIONS Feb 2019 - Present Teaching Courses: Dynamo, 3DS Max, Navisworks

I am hard-working, organized, and dedicated to working on and completing any task presented to me. I believe that I would be an asset to any work environment because of my communication, leadership, and teamwork abilities.

TRANSVERSING STIMULI

EVOKING THE SENSES THROUGH NATURE AND THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT

A design based on an experiential journey at the 1000 Steps, Dandenong, VIC.

In a society of learned deafness and emotional numbness, how do we design a space that provokes interaction with ones senses? This project is a cluster of micro-environments that provoke awareness of space / environment through interactions with the built environment. Paths promising unknown places exciting curiousity, curved planes imparting a sense of ease, and transitions through spaces evoking new feelings.

NOM Architecture as a Product

By starting with a user experience map, we are attempting to understand an individual’s perspective of an experience over a set period. What are their experiences and interactions during the period of their journey? What and where are the intersections where they experience problems? The starting point is to identify any need or problem, and to then develop a solution to that problem. This is quite different from the traditional architectural business model, where the client comes to the Architect with a problem in search of a solution. In this project, we are taking a human centered, business development approach to identify problems faced by Digital Nomads, and developing an architectural spatial solution

We also have an integrated Iridium Satellite receiver pack which operates with a private NOM satellite service or a reputable commercial partner. To provide good quality of space internally, we have designed the unit to have passive cross ventilation system built in and a compact air conditioning unit as well.

The intervention is inspired by a dome-shaped nest box that were purposely built for possums.

Inspiration from Fujian Tulou: natural ventilation, shading, large overhang on roofs, thermal mass, and a sense of community.
