This contemporary family residence in Barry, Cardiff, seamlessly blends with its surroundings while offering a modern twist on functionality. Drawing inspiration from the local housing aesthetic, the design ensures a harmonious streets-cape.
Inside, however, the space is cleverly maximized for a growing family. As the solo visualizer, I meticulously crafted a compact layout that prioritizes function without sacrificing style. Clean lines, modern finishes, and clever built-in storage create a haven for relaxation and family bonding, all within a manageable footprint. This residence exemplifies the perfect balance between respecting local character and embracing contemporary living.

Chittagong Independent University
Nestled among the rolling contours of Chittagong, Bangladesh, Chittagong Independent University rises not in defiance, but in harmonious dialogue with the land. The unique topography becomes the driving force behind this visionary campus design. Multi-story buildings, thoughtfully positioned on the slopes, create a captivating interplay between nature and architecture.
The campus features cascading walkways connecting buildings with breathtaking views and rooftop terraces adorned with greenery, fostering community amidst the hills. Students can enjoy on-site gardens, outdoor workshops, and natural light-filled classrooms, transcending the traditional campus model to create a living entity that embraces its unique site.

The design seamlessly integrates the institute with the landscape, utilizing natural contours and a strategically placed lake for managing rainfall. An integrated aquarium offers a firsthand look at marine ecosystems, enhancing educational experiences. The project reflects the institute's ambitious mission with sustainable design principles and a grand vision for ocean science, education, and conservation. The roles of architectural technologist and assistant were crucial in refining the design for the competition entry.
TRIPLEX MASTERPLAN at BANGLADESH
This exclusive housing project, nestled amidst the rolling hills, caters to discerning clientele seeking a luxurious escape. As Assistant Architect, Architectural Technologist, and Interior Designer, I played a multifaceted role in shaping this visionary development.
The design carefully elevates each residence from the ground, minimizing disruption to the natural topography and maximizing privacy. This sensitive approach allows residents to enjoy breathtaking views without compromising the surrounding environment.
Each residence embodies a contemporary interpretation of luxury. High-end finishes, expansive living spaces, and seamlessly integrated outdoor areas create an oasis of comfort and sophistication. The meticulous interior design ensures each space is not only aesthetically pleasing but also perfectly tailored to the residents' lifestyles.
My combined technical knowledge and design sensibility were instrumental in ensuring the project's seamless execution. Working alongside the lead architect, I ensured the functional aspects were seamlessly integrated with the design vision, resulting in a development that is both luxurious and meticulously crafted.
This hillside haven offers a unique opportunity to experience luxury living in harmony with the natural beauty of the surrounding hills.
DIVINE MERCY GENERAL HOSPITAL
The Divine Mercy General Hospital transcends the boundaries of a traditional healthcare facility. As Assistant Architect and Solo Visualizer, I played a key role in crafting this design, which prioritizes both patient well-being and a connection to nature.
Drawing upon the very essence of "Divine Mercy," the design fosters a sense of peace and tranquillity. This ethos informed my extensive literature review, which focused on the impact of natural elements on healing.
A unique design feature takes center stage – a free-flowing water body that gracefully follows the site's natural slope. This element not only serves as a visual centrepiece but also acts as a calming connector, uniting the various functional buildings within the hospital complex. The soothing sound of water and the reflection of sunlight create a serene environment that promotes healing and reduces stress.
My role extended beyond assisting the lead architect and crafting compelling visuals. The literature review I conducted provided crucial insights that formed the foundation of the design concept. This focus on patient experience and the integration of natural elements ensures the Divine Mercy General Hospital becomes a beacon of holistic healing.
