## What I'm looking for

```text
I’m looking for projects at the intersection of design, sustainability and community, where spatial design enables reuse, care, participation and everyday resilience in the built environment.
```

## About

```text
My independent interior design project for a small local butcher shop took a concept through to spatial layout and material selection, responding to client needs and practical constraints. I also completed an internship at tp bennett, supporting the design team with spatial drawings, layouts and material research.

My studies at London Metropolitan University focused on interior architecture and design, followed by environmental, sustainable and regeneration design. I’m interested in research-led, systems-based projects where spatial design supports environmental responsibility, community wellbeing, reuse and care.
