In 2023 I worked with Berlin based Architecture office, Baukind for a Working Residency Scholarship provided by Goethe Institute for 6 weeks. The first project I worked on was for a Kita for Waterkant Academny on the Ground floor of Wasserstadt Oberhavel in Spandau. I was responsible for creating a Gestaltungskonzepte for the Client where we provided design advice and conceptual drawings. The concept for the project was based on the question "Wo fließt der Fluss?"

CHES (Centre for Higher Education Studies) Is an Education Centre that provides high-achieving school students access to state of the art learning spaces, specialist facilities and access to leading expertise in order to prepare and develop young talent into high achieving fields.
The design of the building focuses on the full height atrium delivering natural light and ventilation tot he learning spaces. This was important due to the deep floorplates of the building volume. The roof is covered with a transparent and lightweight ETFE (Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene, a high strength plastic polymer) inflatable roof.

A key component of its redevelopment is designing for Progressive Early education practices. The diagram on the left is a visual demonstration of the various interaction types and qualities of activities that occur in an Early Education space. And the diagram above is the translation of these principles into an architectural design. The aim of this study was to provide room for thinking about the smaller and more meaningful moments in children’s development.

Title: ‘A Coral Renaissance’ Studio: Map of Doom
The image is a Neo-Renaissance-esque drawing documenting Coral bleaching in the Australian Great Barrier Reef. Using the story of an existing Sinkhole as a refuge to Climate change, it becomes a stage to memorialise and speculate the new relationship we will have to adopt towards Nature in light of the Ecological crisis.
For this image I was interested in returning to ideas of Art, Science and Religion specifically of the Renaissance Era by using the geology of the site, the chemistry of the corals and our history with extracting Fossil Fuels to depict this fable / event of witnessing the last corals of the Great Barrier Reef.
