SYMBOLIC COLLAGE
Third Year, Project 2 - 2020 Antique’s Restorer’s Guild for Newark on Trent This building seeks to rethink the way in which we engage with restoration, history and memory. Its purpose is to provide space for antiques restoration and exhibtion, and be a permanent connection between Newark and the annual Newark Antiques fair on the nearby airfield.
Birdseye view
The deconstructivist collage of symbolic elements (tower, wall, runway, clashing grids, scaffolding) allude to Newark’s heritage, particularly its numerous defensive structures reinforcing the sense this is a building whose purpose is to ‘defend’ the interests of the antiques restoration trades.

A CARING COMMUNITY
Second Year, Final Project - 2019 Social Housing for Burngreave, Sheffield Inspired by Aldo Rossi’s anaologous city, this small housing development seeks to create a microcosmic reflection of the surroundings, that at once integrate and also feels insular. This protective quality creates a safe space around a shared courtyard for the intended occupants: vulnerable families who would need to share child care. The architectural language responds to the surrounding Victorian terraces and the entropy of the adjustments that have been made to them over the years.

PASSIVHAUS DESIGN
Experience on Site, 2020 PassivHaus Build from Design to Completion I spent 9 weeks labouring on the build of a timber passivhaus build which achieved a 0.16 airtightness rating, that was designed and built by a friend of my family. I was heavily involved in the design work from early concept through specification and into construction, working hands on learning the realities of on site construction and having valuable interactions with the tradespeople that make architecture happen.
Early concept sketch I drew for the client. The final build is satisfyingly similar.

LIFT LOBBY DESIGN
Part 1 Work Experience at AHMM, 2021-22 Belgrove House Belgrove House is a Pharmaceutical HQ for MSD, located opposite Kings Cross on the south side of Euston Road. I have been working with the team since the end of Stage 2 after which we entered a 6 month hiatus between planning and the commencement of Stage 3 which we are presently 3 months into. This time provided a rare opportunity to produce lots of design studies which I was able to contribute to.
Example of lift lobby design options across typical levels made in Sketchup and Enscape
These design studies have included, a significant reconfiguration of the Ground and Lower Ground floors in order to rationalise the space and public route through the building, reconfigurations of WCs and shower blocks and design studies for roof terraces and lift lobbies. 1.0 Belgrove House Heart of the Knowledge Quarter

ADDITIONAL DESIGN WORK COMPETITION SCULPTURE

Competition Entry Pavilion for All Back in November, my undergraduate dissertation tutor Xiang Ren approached me to help him and his nascent practice Studio Cloud produce an entry for Argent Related and the AJ led competion for a new sports and soical pavilion for Clitterhouse Playfields in Brent Cross. We managed to produce our submission from conception to completion within a week, working after hours and on the weekend. I heavily influenced the design during a series of calls to the team in Sheffield and then I constructed the model using clay that I sourced from the site itself to show the authentic colour that our rammed earth structure would achieve.
