Example Model
Pavilion
A study in structure and light
Selected Work
Projects
The Babel
An 'eternal tower' structured perpetually under construction, housing modular offices and workshops. The proposal reimagines a privatised storage facility into a dense maker-space and communal workshop.
The School
Integrating technology, ecology, and collaborative learning. The design moves away from conventional classrooms to emphasize teamwork, hands-on learning, and a nursery system for land regeneration.
3D Model
The Student Housing
An exploration of adaptive reuse emphasizing extractivist history — utilizing extracted materials to create a cycle of our own, not trying to erase what has happened.
3D Model
Waterfront Pavilion
A detailed design development focusing on acoustic performance and daylighting of the Waterfront Pavilion. Through iterative soundscape testing and material studies, the project achieves optimal reverberation control and speech intelligibility.
