Contributed to the detailed design of Victoria Lane Apartments as part of a team while at Athfield Architects, a mid-rise development in central Wellington and the first residential apartment building in New Zealand constructed on base isolators. Worked on Consent documentation with a focus of facade detailing and coordination.

Contributed to the innovation Complex at Massey University Albany as part of a team at Athfield Architects, focusing on the development of deflection head details for internal walls. This solution addressed seismic performance while meeting stringent acoustic and specification requirements for a highly technical education facility designed to support research, innovation, and interdisciplinary learning.

Designed to evoke calm and clarity, this yoga and wellness studio in Divonne-les-Bains transforms a dark former nightclub into a serene retreat. Warm white oak, soft recessed lighting, and brass accents create a tactile, inviting atmosphere, while thoughtful circulation and framed sight lines guide visitors effortlessly through studios and consultation rooms.

Aided a project scoping mission to Myanmar, assisting the National Red Cross Society in developing a client-briefing document for the improvement or replacement of five Red Cross warehouses. Running focus groups, site analysis, and stakeholder engagement and consultation.

From New Zealand, I collaborated with Regan Potangaroa on a conceptual temporary housing solution for Cox’s Bazar refugee camp, using prefabricated steel frames that bolted together easily. The design incorporated sandbag walls and locally sourced bamboo cladding, aiming to reduce fire risk while complying with Bangladesh’s temporary shelter regulations.

This project showcases my detail design capabilities through a series of pages developed for a Summerset retirement community. The focus of this work is on the technical resolution of key building elements, illustrating my ability to produce precise, buildable details. Using REVIT, I prepared and annotated construction details to a standard suitable for the building consent process.

Assisted with the interior design of one of Summerset’s main building, focusing on communal spaces and care facilities. Supported material selection, layout planning, and detailing in Revit. Contributed to creating functional, comfortable, and age-appropriate environments that align with the needs of independent living, hospital-level, and dementia care residents.

Part of my Master’s thesis, this project explores timber-framed, foundation-free construction inspired by Rumah Aceh. Merging vernacular seismic design from Indonesia with NZS3604 standards, it reimagines post-quake housing solutions for Christchurch’s Red Zone—offering a code-compliant, resilient, and culturally adapted architecture for displaced communities.
