My education at Norwich University of the Arts has been transformative, propelling my learning to new heights. During my time at the university, I have acquired and refined a wide range of skills, from digital software like AutoCAD, Rhinoceros7, Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop to developing invaluable intangible skills such as collaboration, presentation, communication, and leadership. Engaging in group projects was particularly rewarding as it allowed me to collaborate with peers, gaining diverse perspectives that enriched my design process which I believe were the projects I enjoy and cherish the most. Over the course of three years, I focused on enhancing my expertise in architectural design, drawing, and project management. The challenging coursework and hands-on projects have deepened my understanding of architectural fundamentals and honed my ability to translate abstract concepts into tangible designs.

In Lowestoft, focus is placed on preserving the town centre's historic storefronts. As such during the conceptual phase, storefront investigation was a priority. Stores close to the train station have undergone modernization, eroding Lowestoft's historical allure. This project seeks to repurpose an abandoned building to preserve Lowestoft's identity.
