Welcome to
SUSTAINABLE CONFINEMENT
You may have committed a crime but this does not make you a criminal for ever. The point of your time here is not to punish you for the sake of it, what would that achieve? It is to help you to better yourself and give you the confidence that when you leave, you will be able to sustain and look after yourself and others, and play a positive role in society. Here you will be a member of a self-sufficient ‘family’ and given the responsibility of tending the land, caring for the others you work with, and for yourself. As you cultivate the land, you will cultivate yourself, developing the skills you need to re-enter the wider society aware of and prepared for the valued role you are able to play in your community.
DAILY LIFE

The facility holds 500 inmates in total, with 10 people in each farmhouse. These are sited approximately 500m from each other in a network that follows the flow of a tributary along a desert valley. Together you will be responsible for growing the food to sustain your cluster of 5 farmhouses, pooling and trading resources.
Mast: for the inmate tracking system and communications.
Classrooms: for tuition in a wide range of areas determined by the inmates.

To communicate the experience of the Spa to the outside world, the perfumed air from each of the two ever changing scented zones is exhausted to the surface through the facade. At the same time this ventilates the space.
The monumental yet intimate tectonic uses rough dark concrete for the walls and smooth warm marble for the surfaces that one touches.

LUXURY MAKES A CULTURE OF WASTEFUL CONSUMPTION GLAMOROUS
GREEN URBAN RUNWAY
Fast Cars, Yachts and Helicopters burn huge quantities of non-renewable fuel. The low cost and high volume business model of mass luxury and consumerism creates a culture where a cycle of acquiring and disposing of goods is encouraged. The goods themselves are the product of limited resources, wasteful and exploitative process of production and transportation in order to provide them.

THE PERFUME CYCLE NORTH - SOUTH WALL ORIENTATION
The various programatic parts for perfume production and use work together to allow and enhance each other in a symbiotic system
GROWING Produced
By orientating the walls North - South over the largest possible area this achieves the best growing conditions. This is because both sides of the walls see an equal amount of direct sunlight allowing maximum growth on each.

PROFESSIONAL - DUS ARCHITECTS LARGE SCALE 3D PRINTING
In 2013 Amsterdam based DUS Architects began a practical research project to test the potential of 3D printing at an architectural scale. I was invited to join their small team as a 3D printing technician, testing new materials and processes while developing a new design language with a new technology, pushing the boundaries of architectural innovation. While pursuing the goal of 3D printing the first full building using the 6m high ‘Kamermaker’ printer I also jointed a team of 4 to design an interactive installation. Over the course of 3 months and in collaboration with game design studio Monobanda we developed from concept to completion an immersive experience which challenges the users relationship with their environment and each other in the digital age. ‘3RD’ has since continued to be a great success touring worldwide including featuring in the 2013 Shenzhien Biennale and winning an ‘Excellence’ award at the 18th Japan Media Arts Festival 2015.

INSTALLATION - BAMBOO BEACON BLUE LAGOON FESTIVAL 2015
A playful pavilion that created a centre of activity for festival goers of all ages, the Bamboo Beacon became a fun focal point. It was space to chill out in and play around that lit up at night and even became an 8 person impromptu club! Made of locally sourced bamboo and shimmering ribbons, it’s sculptural form was animated by the wind. Designed and built in collaboration with Connor Waters.
