About Me
I am a hard-working, proactive and diligent person in my final year of studying Commercial Interior Design at Billy Blue College of Design in Sydney.
​
I am enthusiastic and approachable, with a genuine interest in building strong relationships both professionally and personally. My passion for design and collaboration enables me to connect easily with others and work effectively as part of a team.
​
I am career-focused and highly driven, continually seeking opportunities to learn, contribute and take on greater responsibility. My goal is to develop as a designer while making a meaningful impact within the industry.
Art Gallery - Greece
For this assignment, the client brief required the design of an art gallery in a location of our choosing, I chose it to be set in Greece. We were introduced to the Cubus Method, a design approach that enables the creation of unique floorplans through a series of processes. Using this method, I developed a design outcome that I was extremely pleased with.
The gallery was conceived as a space that transforms the visitor into part of the artwork itself. Through the considered use of curves and carefully selected materials, the architecture enhances the experience of moving through the space. Natural timber, marble flooring, and white concrete were chosen deliberately to provide a refined yet understated backdrop. These materials do not compete with the artwork but instead allow each piece to stand out, ensuring that the focus remains on the gallery’s collection while still offering an engaging architectural experience.
Restaurant - 47 Windsor Street, Paddington, NSW 2021
​
For this project, we were asked to design a restaurant for a well-known chef or restaurateur. I chose Neil Perry and developed a concept inspired by the Australian landscape, extending from the interior design through to the dining experience. The restaurant, named The Cutters Table, is located in a townhouse in Paddington.
​
The design embraces locally produced materials, natural finishes and furniture sourced from small Australian businesses, reducing transport emissions while supporting local industry. Rammed earth walls, limestone flooring and natural timbers create a warm, tactile environment that reflects the richness of the landscape.
This approach not only showcases Australian produce but also fosters respect for the land and its cultural heritage. The overall vision for The Cutters Table is to offer diners an experience that is grounded in place, sustainable in practice and expressive of Australia’s unique identity.
Cafe - 46 Baywater Drive Wentworth Point NSW 2127
​
This project focused on developing skills in Revit. The task was to design a café in Wentworth Point, working from a client brief to create a space that would meet their expectations. The café is positioned on the water and includes a mezzanine level, with a relaxed atmosphere that highlights local art and provides a meeting point for cyclists. The client’s vision centred on creating a casual flow and a welcoming feel throughout the space.
​
The emphasis of this project was not on aesthetic design but on accurate documentation. Considerable attention was given to construction codes, ensuring that elements such as walls, stairs and lighting were fully compliant. The process provided valuable practice in producing elevations, sections and detailed drawings. Ultimately, this project strengthened technical skills and highlighted the importance of precision and compliance in the design process.
Private holiday house - NSW South Coast
This University Assessment required me to work with a client who wanted to renovate the kitchen for their new holiday home. I worked with them to create a kitchen that can host a large number of people in their house yet retains a cozy feel of a home which helps to bring people together. The green cabinets were sympathetic to the natural setting in which the dwelling is located and the marble benchtop represents the rugged cliffs of the nearby NSW South Coast. The couple also wanted to capture the historic nature of the holiday home with an overall nostalgic feel and this was accomplished with retro fittings, SMEG appliances and timber surfaces.

Mecca Maxima Store - Macquarie Centre
This University assessment required the creation of a retail space using primarily sustainable materials. I was inspired to use Mecca as the subject of this challenge and designed a store layout suitable for a shopping centre setting. The materials used in the Point of Sale (PoS) area were made entirely of recycled plastic sourced from customer-donated make-up and skin care containers. The horizontal surfaces were covered in ceramic tiles which was both optically pleasing as well as highly resilient and hygienic.

Melbourne Bar Design - Fitzroy
This University assessment required the creation of a fully accessible bar. This was achieved through the incorporation of a fully flowing floor plan to ensure full maneuverability for guests using mobility devices. Similarly, table heights were slightly lowered to meet the needs of both ambulatory and non-ambulatory customers. Other design features included a glass wall between the seated area and the dance floor which serves as a sound divider but still allows cross over of vision. Finally a dynamic lighting constellation is embedded in the ceiling and is configured vibrate to the music and creates an all-immersive sensory experience and cinematic feel.
Private Residence -Blue Mountains
My first University assessment required the use of VRay software in order to demonstrate the design of a modern house inspired by homes from the 1970s. Key features of the space included the sunken living room to bring character and notoriety to the design. Other iconic features included the slit windows, timber paneled ceilings and retro inspired finishes.
For my colour scheme I decided to have the colours as pink and red, this is because I want the colours to resemble love and care. I want this to be the first thing people think and feel coming across my brand. I’m planning on having a large brand following, my plan is to also create a TikTok and Instagram page to get the most publicity as possible. This way I can track my following clearly. As I’m planning on donating to the women’s shelters a lot of my following will come from women at these shelters. I am planning on having market stands which will allow for lots of new customers and followers to meet me in person which allows for a personal connection.
A main brand which comes to mind is a ceramic artist whose stall is called ‘Kemma’. Kemma is a well-established ceramic artist based in Sydney, she often does market stalls and creates products like the products I’m planning on creating. This is my main brand rival as it’s a small business with very similar audience, personality, and promise. However, there are some main differences being my support to charity. Kemma also focuses primarily on mugs, but my plan is to have a large focus on other household items. I’m not concerned how this will affect my brand as I believe there is opportunity for many ceramic artists in Sydney.
