ABOUT
ACADEMIC BACKGROUND
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
EXTRA INFO
I am an enthusiastic and energetic person who holds a Diploma in Interior Design at TAFE Qld since 2019 as well as a degree in Architecture and Urban Planning from Pontifical Catholic University of Goias, Brazil, since 2016. Interior Design & Architecture has always been my passion and I love designing buildings from start to finish.
I've been working with architecture & interior in Australia for the past 3 years, mostly on residential and commercial projects. However, my experience with architecture and interior started since I was in University, back in Brazil, doing internships in local architectural studios.
I've worked using different architectural softwares such as AutoCAD, Sketchup, Revit, and the most recent one, Vectorworks. - I love talking and get to know new people, new stories, and places. I believe understanding more about the world and people helps you become a better professional and human being.

The proposed development involves the alterations and additions to an existing semidetached dwelling including a first floor addition and new garage with studio. As the house is a south side semi, it receives minimal north sunlight. The design of the roof and north facing windows brings north winter sunlight inside to improve the amenity of the house.

04 WESTBURY HOUSE Local: Tasmania, Australia Area: 200sqm Program: Residential, 4 bedrooms + Garage Shed Stage: Design Development for Tender Description: Located in Westbury Tasmania, this project was designed to attend a family of four. The client asked for a gable roof house and wooden finishes, inspired by the Japanese aesthetic. The extra height ceiling in the living areas was also a requirement that not only gave an open and airy feel to the space but also allowed the creation of a second floor. On the second floor, we've proposed a master bedroom and ensuite, as well as a mezzanine facing the living area. Skylights were carefully added to enhance the lighting and ventilation throughout the house, especially on the upper floor. Another addition to this home was the two-sided fireplace in the verandah and living room areas. Duties in this Project: As the only architect involved, I've done concept design to design development, including 3D modelling, RCPs & Schedules.

TENERIFFE APARTMENT - INTERIOR DESIGN Local: Sydney, Australia Description: This was an academic project, made while studying interior design at Tafe. We were asked to decor a pilot apartment, having in mind his preferences for mid-century style, but yet achieving a timeless contemporary look. Deep blue was used as a feature color, because it brings a masculine feeling, evokes power, and is part of the mid-century colour palette.
