INTERIOR MAJOR PROJECT
"BRIDGING THE GAP"
Awarded: First Class (82%)
The centre was created specifically for autistic adults with complex needs, providing a safe space for the autistic community, with elements that allowed the public to integrate and learn from these amazing individuals. Complete with multiple fitted teaching kitchens, a cafe and a multi-sensory room, the centre will provide a relaxed environment in which autistic people can develop new skills and become more independent. The centre will be a place to relax, learn and socialise with people with similar needs. The private spaces will feature mock up domestic spaces, which will allow young adults with autism to learn how to live independently, with assistance from staff. The centre is to be created with autism being the focal point behind the structure and choice of designs, to ensure that the space has its full potential to help young adults feel safe and comfortable.
TEMPORARY STRUCTURE COMPETITION
"A Timeless Odyssey"
Awarded: First Class.

I created a sustainable, endless staircase that explore the concept of time being abolished, inspired by a Portsmouth fairytale called ‘Day of the Clocks’.
