The project creates a therapeutic synesthetic soundscape within the forest, visually representing the change in seasons through the production of different sounds, and more specifically, five frequencies.
The project focuses on the recreation of five frequencies, representing the five stages of ‘heaven'. It relies on the collection of rainwater combined with wind, creating different frequencies of sounds depending on the amount of air and water.
The project restores the balance at Flimwell Park, focusing on more evenly distributing sunlight. Driven by the idea of ‘kindness’ and the narrative of Plato’s ‘Republic’, ideas of interdependence and symbiotic relationships are explored.
Final rendering. The project explores ideas of good and evil within war and invasion, through concepts of light and dark as well as the power of human intervention and how this can interchange between being a positive or negative feat.
The project is created around a narrative inspired by David Lynch's film ‘The Elephant Man’ (1980) and explores definitions of kindness.
North Elevation. The project creates a residential space for homeless people and provides job opportunities to cope with the roots of homelessness.
North section. As the rate of homelessness is influenced by economic, environmental, social and climate factors, the project tries to mitigate those issues by producing biodegradable building materials, in the form of mycelium bricks.
Sectional perspective in context.
Construction detail. Restoring balance between the three main parts of the soul, set forth in Plato’s ‘Republic’ – the heart, mind and stomach – this architecture serves as a timeless haven within the dystopian future of 2080.
The project is based on the narrative of Plato’s 'Republic' and explores the idea of interdependence within society. The building proposal takes place in the year 2045, addressing both homelessness and climate change through an upcycling hub.

Perspective view. The building design focuses on homelessness by creating a sheltered residence and café where profits go to those is need.
Highline level floor plan. The art centre is a multi-purpose gallery where street artists can explore and work on art pieces without fear of prosecution.
Exploring load through the structure – the exploded drawing displays structural elements of the building.
Section view of the pod on the Camden Highline. The pods on the highline are centre points in each of the five chosen locations along the highline. The pods are social and environmental centres, promoting culture, socialising and collectivity.
