Curriculum Vitae
Facilita ng social and environmental design, passive technologies
are employed for an enjoyable energy efficient home.
Set at the confluence of two rivers on the rural-urban fringe, the gallery uses
materiality and rhythm to provide a pla orm of convergence and explora on.
The centre piece of a towns cultural explora on, both symbolically and
physically, the theatre offers a place of expression for all to see.
In an urban heart subject of change, the towers create a highly adaptable
structure, focused on change whilst s ll providing a pla orm for community.
Entwining old and new allowing ease of discovery and explora on of both
Vinolys visual arts facility and the town itself, a mixture of sugges on and
simple expression facilitates freedom of movement.
Bringing new life to three sites around the town centre that stand as part
of the towns history, and now its future. Using scale and local influences
to reintegrate the sites, new opportuni es emerge out of interest and
enjoyment.
01
eco house
Set as a compe on by the Concrete Centre, the ‘Eco House’
is to be located in south-east England. The design should look
to use concrete as a primary material, while crea ng the most
sustainable form possible, encouraging both environmental
and social well being. The design should house a family of four.

sustainable communities
While the house provides technological aides to sustainability, the environment it sits within provides for a
desirable and sustainable place, both socially and environmentally. Open shared spaces allow freedom of
ac vity whether it is simply children playing from day to day or a communal bbq. The use of space also allows
light and air to flow in freely to the houses, their simple form being easily repeated to build communi es. The
aim is to facilitate and provide the pla orm for a sustainable life, avoiding dicta on and control.

Open communal areas, individual bedrooms with large deep set
windows and the thought out use of space provides a compact home
capable of housing an average family providing space for both privacy
and family life. Using hempcrete as a primary building material
along with a central light cowl the building takes advantage of
passive techniques, minimising human and energy inputs facilita ng
a sustainable home. The simplicity of design allows for quick
construc on and low costs.

In order for a home to
be sustainable it must
first be affordable,
and so one way to
facilitate low cost is
by pre-manufactured
components requiring
simple assembly on site.
This means that the
house becomes easily
adaptable during its
life me as components
can be removed and
replaced as desired.
This adaptability
furthers the ambi on
of sustainability by
allowing inhabitants
to customise and care
for their homes over a
longer life cycle.

The use of a concrete frame and hempcrete walls allows a high thermal mass through

Looking out to the countryside, the rhythm of
the urban environment to the west is reflected in
the wall and glazing, allowing natural light deep

Set a few minutes walk from the busy town centre, the gallery looks
out into the countryside at the confluence of the rivers Cam and
Chelmer, as a green corridor creeps into the urban mass.

The first floor entry point, along the new bridge, elevated and

galleries and then down to each lower level.

Full access to the roof terrace provides not just an exhibi on area,

A single unified bridge crosses both

The container tower is a highly
adaptable, standardised design
allowing a high level of flexibility to
meet the needs of its residents. From
the residen al container modules to
the concrete slabs of the community

removed or placed as necessary to
adapt to changing requirements.
Using unused shipping containers,
of which there are millions out of

aim is to create a building which is
capable of changing with a changing

in the town has signaled the scale
of these changes, with new student

2 Minories Currently an art gallery and rentable studios,
the ‘firstsite’ project team occupy here and are the
drivers behind the Visual Arts Facility (vaf).

cross access with the neighbouring residen al areas.
6 Shopping district A large retail area is criss-crossed by
regular narrow streets and open spaces.
7 Residen al area Divided from other residen al areas
further south by the railway line, these areas are
sensi ve to noise and disrup on.
8 Roman Wall A strong visual reminder of the historic
nature of the area, it is currently neglected and poorly
maintained.
Proposal Using the grid form to realign the urban mass, connec on is made to the historic fabric
with new threads of movement across the site allowing natural discovery and curiosity.

Inclusion, curiosity and freedom have become the central
principles of a design which hopes to capture the imagina on
of any who catch a whisper of the area. Inclusion, to allow all to
par cipate, whether it is the crea on of an art piece, the parttaking in an audience or simply to share a moment. Curiosity, to
provoke thought, enable the poten al to spark a thought and
enlighten or ennoble an individual. And freedom, to allow the
discovery of place, space and thought.

Reinvigorated with life and ambi on
through the design of a new campus for
the expanding university. Key buildings
have been retained, such as the 1912 road
front building, the Art Deco office and
accompanying factory buildings and water
tower. These now house lectures rooms
and theatres, adminstra on offices and a
student bar. Across the site a new primary
route connects the train sta on with the
riverside campus and residen al areas
to the north. New commercial and light
industry units stand alongside the mul

The former University site has
laid derelict for several years.
The proposal looks to enable
movement and create both cultural
and commercial opportuni es.
A new underpass, wide and
overlooked by residences, provides
direct access from the south along
a key axis to the Anne Knight
building. This now stands as a small
local theatre fron ng on to a new
pedestrianised sta on square. The
rhythm of the viaduct is reflected
in the proposed built form along

Unlike the other two sites here
the buildings are all in use, with
the Shire Hall its self due to be

of design to the space between
them. To the west of the area
are the county council buildings,
to the north the Cathedral, and
then the Hall itself, currently
used as a magistrates court.

Founded by myself and four friends, we aimed to ‘create a culture of architecture’. Within a month
we became the largest society at university and gained funding. We held several successful events
including a group trip to Bath, a guest speaker and a four day end of year event which included a

industry in a endance.

Fascinated by design and people, I am enthusias c and excited to become involved in prac ce.
Through my me at university I have not only learnt and experimented with methods of design
and research, but developed the skills and confidence to deliver them. My interest in the urban

Travel
This past summer I was fortunate to spend just over a month travelling across Europe. A good
friend and myself journeyed from city to city to discover new people, places and the architecture
we have studied. Our only condi on was to book our return flight leaving us to work out our
journey as we travelled.
Also this summer I joined a volunteer charity trip to Croa a to refurbish and decorate three
childrens hospitals. As part of the fund raising effort I learned to kayak and entered a na onal
