As an aspiring architect, I believe design principles need to change to give a greater focus to sustainability and wellbeing. This perspective stems from my upbringing in New Zealand, which has instilled in me a profound understanding of the relationship between architecture, people, and nature. Exploring the psychological relationship we have with architecture, or 'sense of place', has fostered my interest in critical architecture that engages with social and political struggles and its cultural disposition within the city it inhabits and the community it belongs to. From my time working at Buckley Gray Yeoman, I have developed my attention to detail and flexibility, working with various software such as Vectorworks, Rhino, Vray and Twinmotion. I have worked on a range of projects approved for planning and many pitches that BGY have won. I have also delivered several CPD workshops to my practice as a specialist in architectural visualisation. Through the synthesis of theoretical exploration and practical experience, I aspire to create spaces that are both environmentally conscious and culturally sensitive while simultaneously addressing social and political issues.
