About
Recent Post Graduate Master of Architecture at the University of Liverpool. Modules included: Climatic design for sustainable architecture, Parametric design, Urban design and landscaping, Designing for a changing climate and sustainable environmental design.
I have spent time backpacking across Europe to Far East Asia. Travelling is where my love for Interior, Architecture and Biophilia stemmed from. Travelling has allowing me to embracing diverse cultures throughout the locations I have visited. Within my designs I am not only environmentally conscious of the materials and products I am using, taking the eco friendly approach but I also tend to take inspiration from the natural world to influence my projects through shape, structure and versatility.

Chester zoo Eco-village Thesis
How can we change the way tourism can not only help climate change but also help conservation through sustainable architecture? A proposal to create a sustainable eco village at Chester Zoo to allow visitors to stay overnight. The site will consist of a four distinctive accommodations including a Welcome Building Bar and Bistro. Analysing Chester Zoo's existing proposed plans, these plans will be broken down and adapted to further maximise sustainable construction and green design practise whilst introducing parametric architecture. This strategy will increase the revenue stream to help Chester Zoo continue their conservation efforts to help the ecosystem in a changing climate. This thesis project will take into consideration the visitor experience but targeting the areas typically found in the tourism and hospitality industry that lead to excessive carbon footprint, and ways to tackle this through sustainable architecture. This method and analysis will hopefully propel passive design strategies, enhance user experience, create opportunity for educational purposes and be used as a green precedent study for future designers and architects in ways they can practise through lowering carbon footprint whilst designing and setting a positive sustainable example.
