Project & design work
Coursework from my first year studying interior design at the University of Salford, alongside self-initiated concepts. Every project is set in a commercial or industrial space. These are student design projects, not client commissions; boards, drawings and model photos will be added as each one is finished.
A floor of a former cotton mill reimagined as a co-working studio. Exposed brick and cast-iron columns stay on show; terracotta acoustic baffles calm the volume overhead; eucalyptus-green booths give space for calls and focus work.
A compact espresso bar for Salford Quays, planned around a fast morning queue and a slower afternoon dwell. Terracotta banquettes, a patterned tile floor and coastal-blue joinery keep it warm against the waterfront grey.
Crate-digging meets listening bar. Modular plywood browsers on castors clear the floor for evening events, a raised listening stage anchors the back wall, and a ceiling of salvaged sleeves turns stock into display.
A showroom for a fictional ceramics brand inside a Victorian railway arch. Sample walls step back through the vault, with a working glaze bench at the rear so visitors can watch the making.
Open studio, project rooms and a loud room for pitches. Colour zoning (terracotta for collaboration, blue for quiet) helps a team of forty find the right space for the task in hand.
A break space for a distribution warehouse running round-the-clock shifts. Wipe-clean surfaces that still feel warm, circadian lighting for night shifts, and planting along the loading-yard windows.
