I recently achieved a distinction for my Masters Degree in Interior Design, having previously studied furniture and product design at degree level.

I am now looking to put this into practice by gaining some professional experience within a multidisciplinary practice.

My recent work has been highly experimental in nature but led to sound practical solutions.

This work has explored the idea of using soundscapes to develop site analysis, which provides a unique perspective on ones surroundings.
Or the study of dark interior space and how it can influence our ability to perceive our environment and enrich our understanding of it.
