You develop expertise in analysing and interpreting existing conditions and sites to build a sense of place, visualising immersive spaces and helping others to visualise space. We work with what already exists, refitting, reusing, reworking and adapting. We're detail-oriented, attending to materials, surfaces, pattern, fabrication, and connections.

This pathways blends craft-based skills with cutting-edge technologies through creative design outputs that push innovation and boundaries within spatial design. Research projects can focus on either individual or collaborative projects; encompassing bespoke projects to industry related projects, re-thinking spatial design on a local and global level.
