About me

I first found my interest in architecture through Engineering graphics and design a subject that I always enjoyed and excelled in throughout high school. I then studied at the Draughting academy where I had more practical experience in architecture and had the opportunity to job shadow architects within the field. Wanting to improve on conceptual and creative design skills, I applied to study at Witwatersrand. Surprising myself with my academic achievements by making Dean's list and getting an invite into the golden key society. Although being a stressful and crazy three years in the Wits architecture program, I feel I gained a lot of knowledge, while also meeting and collaborating with an amazing group of lecturers and peers gaining an exceptional experience. The experience was demanding but being able to look back on my work and achievements helps me to keep pushing forward. I am ready to take the next steps forward in my journey through architecture. I know there's a lot more to learn and improve on but ready to take on the challenges as they come. I'm looking to use my free time to improve on my weaknesses and explore my interests while finding new ones.

I'm very excited to engage with new people in the field and learn as much as I can from every experience and opportunity. I have developed social skills and a punctual work ethic from my weekend job in customer service. I own a vehicle with a valid driver’s license, therefore free to travel to wherever I’m needed.

Personal Manifesto

Project

Reflection on design approach from projects In my design approach, I mainly look at the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s site/ context, being the social and environmental aspects that will inform and impact my design. Another principle I mainly consider is the circulation of people through space being interior or exterior. Where the context and circulation are then the aspects that help influence how I design and conceptualize the form and geometry of the building. These principals could not only be thought of as individual principals but as complementary principals where each idea informs the next creating interconnectivity between the entire design. Allowing for each design element to feel intentional.

Site/context

Circulation

Geometry

Newtown: Museum of Johannesburg In my Museum design, I looked to the site and context to build the concept behind the building's form and how it sits on the site. The movement of people on and around the site from surrounding areas informed the decision to separate the programming into two separate buildings creating a large courtyard public space between them giving space back to the city while allowing a line of movement across the site. The most northern building also gives space back to the city where I designed a large amphitheater space the sits on top of the auditorium dome placed underground. This space activating the street edge and drawing people onto the site. Each building is connected with long bridges that create a grand threshold onto the site and allow for different sightline views to help improve safety. The design looks into power, water, social and economic sustainability. The building has solar panels for a passive power supply to the building and uses basic passive stack ventilation theories within the circulation courtyard, and piercing light wells into the exhibition spaces above and below ground, while also bringing in lots of natural light where needed. Social and economic sustainability is an issue within Newtown as there is a lack of safe recreational spaces within the city, no after school programs for children, lack of job creation, and increasing gender-based violence. I wanted to address these issues within the design by creating spaces and events that would occur at the museum to help give back to the community.

Newtown: Social and economic sustainability Newtownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s social and economic growth and sustainability was the main contributor to the museum design. I wanted the museum to create new job opportunities for people within the community. While also bringing in more people to gather as a community by creating safe recreational public spaces giving back to the city and the people. The museum's exhibition story also helping to educate and improve gender-based violence and other social issues we are facing in our country.

The Link: Student commons The student commons design is a design to give back safe space within the city to students where they can study, gather, get medical attention, entertain, and shop. While also being a space for office workers, retail, and dining to create job opportunities. My design is separated into two separate buildings connected with a large atrium space for natural light and ventilation. The two buildings form and placement on the site create two public spaces on the site which draw people in and through the building. The two separate buildings also divide up the programming with the one being the more public spaces and events, the other holding the private office working spaces for students. The atrium has shading devices to help control the amount of sun and heat allowed into the space. The louvers wrap around the atrium moving from horizontal on the left faรงade to vertical on the west. Vertical circulation occurs within the atrium then moves out horizontally on each floor with bridges spanning the atrium. The movement then occurs around central lightwells in the center of each building wing creating a clear view of how to navigate the space. The lightwells also bring light and ventilation into the deep spaces.

TimeLine: Temporality and genius loci

Group members- Priyan Moodley -Daniel Bilton

This was a small group project where we were tasked to design new spatialities in the time of a plague. My group looked into an easily constructed module that could be used as testing stations or medical facilities. We thought of how this module would perform and be used during the covid19 pandemic and thereafter in conjunction with three different sites within South Africa. The three sites are the Cape Town promenade, Johannesburg inner-city at Joubert park, and the Drakensburg mountains at the Jewel city resort. Each site would start off with the same module made up of a scaffolding structure with basic insulation and corrugated roof and wall panels. As a quickly constructed response to the pandemic. This module would then develop into a potential vaccine dispenser around South Africa changing its use at all three sites. We then explored further into how and what could the module become in a post-Covid world. Where the module would develop into something new that could potentially address environmental, social, and economic issues at their respective sites. Thus, the module would become unique to its area being added to or taken apart to perform new functions.

The Horizon: Freedom Park conference center The freedom park design includes a conference center, exhibition spaces, and accommodation for overnight visitors. The design uses the steep slope and curvature of the site to separate the public museum spaces from the more private accommodation spaces. The geometry of the design takes inspiration from origami using the shape of the contours to inform how each roof element is created. The building's programs are separated and cascade down the slope of the site. These different programs are connected with exterior circulation ramps that lead to shaded garden spaces that allow for one to pause and reflect while taking in the surrounding views of Pretoria CBD and the mountainous surrounding areas.
