Objectives To assist and leave a positive impact has been a priority in and outside of the workplace. To find environmental and ecological solutions for new and existing spaces. Lastly, with my skills from my previous courses, the opportunity to learn and gain experience from senior technicians and gain greater insight into working in a design studio.

Personal Statement My current role is to serve and communicate with the public, whilst planning rotas, document hours and budgeting. I am responsible for the running of day-to-day tasks and targets, including delegating towards the rest of the team to deliver great standards to our consumers.
What I am looking to achieve from this position is to enhance my knowledge and love of working in a design studio for the community. My passion to become an architectural technologist stems from the motivation to lower our carbon footprint, whilst investigating new technology that benefits the client and their needs.
This role will give me the opportunity to assist and provide a response to the needs of clients and to support the designers and directors. Henry Moore Institute Survey

Future Dwelling Sheffield Hallam University / Brief: MOBIE requires us to design a home for a client with specific needs and establish the use of universal design in the home. The structure is to be made using 3m x 3m pods and fit the home onto an 18m x 18m plot. Client: My occupant for the project is a young person living independently who has Cerebral Palsy, it’s her first time living on her own and requires advanced technology to support her needs and ability to live independently.
Our client wanted her home to have a modern feel and still be highly functional without it looking like a home for the disabled.

Man Ray Fashion Show Leeds Beckett University / Brief: ‘Design an Event’ for an artist and their friends. Base the design around a given postcard of an artist’s painting or sculpture. Design an event around the artist’s approach to their work/their life. Client: The resources used in this space are a mixture of transparent, translucent and opaque materials. The chance to experiment with silhouettes, lightness and darkness which are elements that are iconic in the Rayographs. When people come to visit this event, it is expected for them to receive the same reaction as if they came to watch one of Man Ray’s films.
