A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME...​

 

​

I am a highly self motivated interior
design student seeking an opportunity to secure a 1 year intern placement in an established interior design company. Throughout this placement opportunity, I aim to rapidly build upon the foundations I have been developing over the last 2 years at university- positively enhancing my skill set through hand on practice and experience gathering in the real world of interior design.

IKEA

03 IKEA SHEFFIELD

WAITING AREA DESIGN

DURATION: 3 WEEKS

​

WITH THE BRIEF OF A SCANDINAVIAN MODERN STYLE ACHIEVED THROUGH THE USE OF IKEA BRANDED MATERIALS ONLY, I DESIGNED A SEATING POD SYSTEM THAT TRANSFORMED AN EMPTY OPEN SPACE INTO A VIBRANT AND INVITING WAITING AREA. WITHIN MY DESIGN, I EXHIBITED HOW TO STYLE MY CHOSEN IKEA FURNITURE IN A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT WAYS- SHOWING THE BRANDS FULL POTENTIAL. I ALSO INCLUDED THE WELL KNOWN BLUE AND YELLOW TONES OF THE IKEA LOGO AND DESIGNED A SPACE THAT WAS FRIENDLY FOR ALL USERS.

04 BDP ARCHITECTS

CASCADE

DURATION: 8 WEEKS

​

BY CONDUCTING LOTS OF RESEARCH INTO SHEFFIELD HALLAM'S ATRIUM SPACE AND STICKING TO A £15K BUDGET, I DESIGNED AN INTERACTIVE, PERFORATED  STEEL RACK SYSTEM THAT ALLOWED STUDENT WORK TO BE PRESENTED AND SEEN FROM ALL FOUR FLOORS IN THE SPACE. I AIMED TO ENCOURAGE STUDENTS TO APPRECIATE THE SPACE MORE DUE TO IT PRIMARILY BEING USED AS A WALK WAY TO CONNECT TWO BUILDINGS ON CAMPUS.

SPIRAL

05 THE SPIRAL

HARDWICK HALL

DURATION: 12 WEEKS

​

I DESIGNED THE SPIRAL IN RESPONSE TO THE HARDWICK HALL SITE IN DERBYSHIRE. IT CONSISTS OF A 10 METRE HIGH SPIRAL LIKE STRUCTURE THAT ALLOWS THE PUBLIC TO GET A BETTER VIEW OF THE TWO HALLS. THE DESIGN REFLECTS SOME OF HALL'S HISTORY IN TERMS OF SOCIAL HIERARCHY AND INTRICATE PLASTERWORK.
