A BIT About ME & MY WORK

I work across architecture, art, and spatial design, creating considered responses to place through colour, narrative, and form.

My practice is rooted in listening - to people, to landscapes, and to the character of spaces themselves. Whether working on private homes, public-facing projects, or site-specific artwork, I am interested in how environments are experienced and how thoughtful design can create connection, meaning, and a sense of belonging.

Alongside my architectural training, I have a longstanding interest in psychology, perception and how environments affect emotional and physical experience. This perspective informs how I work with colour, light, material and proportion - considering not only how a space looks, but how it is felt and inhabited.

My approach is shaped by an understanding that spaces can support calm, focus, connection or energy, depending on how they are designed. This awareness underpins my interest in neuroaesthetic principles - how our brains and bodies respond to visual and spatial environments - and guides my aim to create work that feels grounding, intuitive and human.

Beginnings

I grew up on a farm, where seasons, weather, and patience shaped daily life. Those early experiences still inform how I work: observing closely, responding carefully, and understanding that good outcomes come from working with what already exists rather than imposing upon it.

Nature continues to be a quiet but constant influence - not as decoration, but as structure, rhythm, and atmosphere.

Architecture & Practice

I studied Architecture at Newcastle University before spending over a decade in London working as an Architectural Visualiser. During that time, I collaborated with leading architectural practices on major commercial and residential developments, contributing to many of the large-scale projects that now form part of London’s skyline.

This background gave me a strong grounding in spatial thinking, scale, materiality, and how ideas translate from concept to built reality - skills that underpin everything I do now.

A Shift in Direction

Alongside this professional work, I maintained a parallel creative practice - one that allowed for intuition, slowness, and personal response. Over time, it became clear that my most meaningful work sat at the intersection of these worlds: architecture and art, structure and feeling, logic and imagination.

Stepping away from a conventional path allowed me to shape a practice that is more responsive, human, and connected - one that values collaboration, careful listening, and thoughtful process as much as final outcomes.

what i do

My work sits at the intersection of architecture, art, and spatial experience. I work across a range of scales and contexts, offering:

• Spatial and interior design for private homes
• Public art and site-specific projects
• Illustrated maps, architectural drawings, wayfinding and visual narratives for places, institutions, and considered commercial contexts
• Bespoke artwork integrated into architectural environments

While the outcomes vary, the approach remains consistent: listening carefully, responding to context, and shaping environments that feel grounded, considered and human.
