Section 01 / overview

Hello

I’m a RIBA Part 2 architectural assistant who works between the design team and the building site. My strength is the technical side: I produce construction details with buildability in mind, coordinate ten-plus subcontractor packages, and translate design intent into information a site can actually build from. Having worked contractor-side on residential refurbishment projects through RIBA Stages 3 to 6, I understand what each side needs, which lets me bridge design and construction. Alongside this I run Meter Design Studio, where I take on freelance architectural drawing and planning work. I’m now looking for a Part 2 role on the design side, where I can build more experience in design development while bringing my technical and site knowledge with me.

Current focus

Part 2 Architectural Assistant
