Ravine Ridge
Residential Individual Project Software: Revit Fall 2024
“A cabin in the woods” was the initial prompt for this project and while that remained the central concept of the design, the project ultimately became an exercise in balancing traditional and contemporary aesthetics. This is a 16x40 cabin house. Which includes 1 bathroom and 1 bedroom along with a loft above the bedroom. The loft looks down onto the first floor creating an open and spacious room which allows for light to spread throughout the space all year round.

Travel/Urban Sketches
Summer: 2021 - 2024
Sketching is a major form of understanding architecture and specific detail that catches the attention of our eyes in ways photographs cannot. Each sketch acts as a form of documentation of my learning process throughout each journey. During my time in my bachelor studies, I explored various perspective studies using various drawing techniques such as ink drawing, watercolor, pencil and coal.
