Year 5
Project 1 - The National Trust
To design, develop and execute a live project with a prestigious client, The National Trust. The aim was to design and build a pavillion to commorate the centenary of WW1, and reflect the site, at Dunham Massey and its involvement as a military hospital.
Phase 1 - To create individual design concepts for the pavilion. Unfortunately my design didnt make it past this phase.
Phase 2 - A a group to develop 4 designs within a group to present to The National Trust.
Phase 3 - Within our group to develop, manage and excute 2 successful designs chosen by The National Trust.
Project 2 - Dream Pavilion
Within a group we entered a live competition to design a 'Dream Pavilion' to be built in Bethnal Green, London.
The concept drivingthe dream pavilion 'Psomnia' expands and plays on the theory that ' dreams reveal more than they conceal' seeking to alter the perception of the user through a series of optical illusions.
Project 3 - 1KHO
A 48 hour group project to design a 1000 year house. As our population is set to grow exponentially, it consequently means we' be digging deeper into our resources aswell as billions more people to feed and house. So we proposed silkworms as a source of food and a method of construction.
Project 4 - D3 Housing of Tomorrow
A durable, practical, lightweight, versatile and modular system. Designed to change in either location or application so that it is easy to assemble, dismantle, transport and store.
Inspired by growing population displacement with ore than 45.2 million people displaced in the year 2012.Natural disasters and conflict is inherent in our future which gives demand for disaster relief architecture and nomadic lifestyles.
Phase 1 My initial design concept to commemorate the centenary of WW1.
Phase 1 A brief insight into how it will work.
Phase 2 The Spirit commemorates the spirit of the soldiers from the 5 expeditionary forces. It reflects there bravery and hope as they look up out of the trenches. It come in 5 pieces, each can be individually presented or joined together in dynamic combinations.

Phase 2 'Post traumatic stress disorder' is a debilitating physiological condition that has traversed time, most commonly associated with those who have suffered wartime conflict. This pavilion seeks to provide a physical manifestation of the condition, referencing the repercussions of events historical and present day concurrently.

Phase 2 'The Sanctuary' from the trenches. This symbolic and experiential pavilion walks a through a journey of reflection of the hardship the tommy soldiers went through in the trenches, to dwelling in the sanctuary of rest and peace at Dunham Massey.

Phase 2 '283' commemorates the 283 injured soldiers that were patients at Dunham Massey's Stamford Military Hospital. The design is inspired by the patients environment: The sterile indoor environment versus the peaceful outdoors, the play with light and dark to reflect their emotions. A reflection of the journey to recovery.

Phase 3 'Rest' recognises the not only the soldiers but the significant efforts from the doctors and nurses at Dunham Massey Stamford Military Hospital. It seeks to reflect upon the outdoor cure that they so strongly believed in, whilst symbolising the sterile indoor hospital beds.

Phase 3 Interstices is a collection of 283 concrete cubes, each exhibiting a patient number. Consequently each cube, in its raw rough and worn nature, represents each soldier that passed through the hospital. Each cube is specifically located to reflect there rank and regiment.

The form was generated from 4 individual data models created from site analysis. Red - Views out data model Blue - Views in data model Yellow - Solar data model Green - Circulation model

Year 3
With the progression and flux of technology becoming more and more available with social networks and data, the modern world is becoming more and more seperated from human relationships which dilutes appreciation of individuality and identity.
Architecture can influence social pattern and behaviour whilst maintaining positive historical values.
This project will accomodate and house the human interactions and induce identity formation with individuality.
“ There is an art to relationship” as Gordon Cullen suggests.
The NQ Hub will support and improve the culture, independence and identity of the northern quarter.
To influence the users to reconcile with themselves, boost individuality and reintegrate with human culture.
Assist and support new creative businesses whilst providing affordable workspace.
A hybrid perspective drawing of the approach along Oldham street.
The grey buildings border my site, Tib street. Green depicts the NQ Hub.
Hybrid plan of the NQ hub and it's context.
Sequential steps involved in Generating the form.
Showing how the throughway changes from a closed intimate alleyway to a concealed voluminous lightwell, central for interaction with the building.
A detailed plan showing many elements within the design such as the pathway. A detailed pathway depicting the transition of directionality and making the connection apparent with the building and the courtyard.
A visual that shows materiality and suggested activities within the space. Visualising the communal yet intimate space created by concrete beams, posts and furniture.
Detail of the deep windows on teh Oldham stree facade, which contrast the bay windows on the Tib street facade. The idea is to feel hid away from the noisy street.
Visualisations of the Tib and Oldham street facades with the surrounding context. Tib streets facade fits seamlessly into its context, whilst Oldham street facade is alienated to be apparent within the busy street.
A visual along the throughway from Tib treet. Showing materiality and the transparency of the building with an elegant transition from outside into the community hybrid space.
Year 2
Chips project
With our world's population increasing and city living in higher demand, urban farming is the next step into sustainability
The project is located in the New Islington Regeneration Project where it will provide a wealth of healthy food locally grown to encourage people to take care of their health and wellbeing, to promote the use of unused land which can create diversity, to inspire all ages and bring a sustainable community to fruition.
It consists of two tiered forms. One a landscaped hill and the other mirrors the form but holds a hydroponic farm shop with student accommodation which is set up to provide work experience for agricultural students.
Graz Art Education Centre
Located in a Austrian Sculpture park, in Graz. The centre will provide accommodation for both students and a professor of Art with the additional access to a research and gallery space.
A trio of elements that have minimal environmental impacts with passive systems and a keen relationship with its environment.
Elemental Pavilion
Located in Sale water Park, Manchester. The pavilion provides shelter whilst offering concealed and open panoramic views of the countryside and lake for the public and seasonal bird watchers. a low carbon structure which can be disassembled and moved or grow into its environment.

Agricultural Pavilion
Located in Hulme Park, a pavilion that consumes and produces agricultural products.
Designed so that the produce is grown on an accessible green roof, whilst providing shelter underneath for the stalls to sell the products.
Market Practice
Located in Gaythorn in Manchester city centre, bordered by the railway arches, the mancunian way and derelict mills.
A row of compact urban farmhouses underneath the arches, when purchased you then share the urban farm and its agricultural produce, which can then be sold on the portable market workspaces.
