Villas, 2bed flats, and technical drawings

Sounds like a really bad Guy Ritchie film doesn't it?

Well this is supposed to be a blog about architectural endeavors and yet, it seems to be lacking in...well everything!

As of the last post, I have won a prize with my team for the design of our bandstand!

The bandstand was runner up in the Norman Gill Charitable Trust competition, we noted for outstanding design which was very flattering for us!

Since university, I have been working temporarily for a small practice in London (in the rather splendid Mayfair, or specifically Berkely Square!) While there, I have been given a LOT of creative control, which is awesome! I've been able to contribute heavily to smaller projects, one of which was handed over to me in its entirety to handle! What an honour eh? On top of this, the practice has been kind enough to set me exercises to aid in me in areas that I am weak in.

I've also been working on a large ultra-modern villa for the south of Spain, it has been quite the challenge! Though I could never deny that I was enjoying it!

I shall post some images of the work as soon as I am allowed to (prevailing watermarks etc etc etc)
