To Whom It May Concern:
I am providing a letter of recommendation on behalf of Amittai Lee Antoine.
I had the opportunity to be a colleague of Amittai’s since the time of my employment at Zaha Hadid Architect in September 2017.
I have found Amittai to be dedicated, experienced, self-motivated and highly creative. I consider him to be a great asset to the firm. Amittai worked on several national and international projects of different scales and uses, and has covered all RIBA work-stages from 0 to 7.
I highly recommend him for the position of Senior Architect.

Personal Statement
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to express my interest in the position of Senior Architect at your esteemed practice. As a UK-registered architect and a graduate of The Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, I bring a wealth of experience and a proven track record in delivering exceptional design solutions on prestigious, international projects.
My professional journey includes working with some of the foremost figures in architecture, including Sir David Adjaye, Norman Foster, Thomas Heatherwick, and Zaha Hadid. This has equipped me with a deep understanding of architectural practice and an ability to contribute meaningfully at the highest levels of design.
I began my architectural studies at Oxford Brookes University, graduating with a First in my final-year design project under Dr. Sarah Stevens. Following this, I gained hands-on experience at Adjaye Associates, where I developed a versatile skill set as a Part I Architectural Assistant. My MArch Architecture (Part II) studies at The Bartlett under Dr. Marcos Cruz deepened my expertise, particularly in the use of digital fabrication techniques for ornamental design.
Professionally, I have excelled in roles at Foster + Partners and Zaha Hadid Architects, where I worked on high-profile international projects. At Foster + Partners, I contributed to winning multiple international competitions. At Zaha Hadid Architects, I led the interior architecture construction package for a travel terminal in Tallinn, Estonia, further solidifying my capabilities as a project architect.
Beyond practice, I have been invited to critique student work at Oxford Brookes University and the University of Brighton, reflecting my commitment to the broader architectural community.
I am highly skilled in Computer-Aided Design (CAD), three-dimensional modeling, digital fabrication, physical model making, and hand-drawing, enabling me to engage with a wide range of design challenges effectively.
Please find my CV and portfolio attached for your reference. I would welcome the opportunity to contribute my skills and experience to your team.
Yours faithfully,
Amittai Lee Antoine

Norton Museum of Art
Summary
The new masterplan restores the logic of Wyeth’s plan, reasserting the clarity of the main axis, balancing the different building heights and providing flexible, welcoming visitor facilities to attract a wider local and international audience. This retrofit project aims to transform the existing assemblage of buildings into a world-class cultural destination within a sub-tropical garden setting. A new street frontage on South Dixie Highway to the west redefines the museum’s relationship with the city and reasserts the main entrance on the central axis – visitors will once again be able to see through the building via a new, transparent entrance lobby and refurbished glass and iron courtyard doors.

Norton Museum of Art
Summary
The new entrance is signalled by three new double-height pavilions, which mediate between the low-rise galleries and three-storey Nessel Wing and unify the whole composition with a shared materials palette of white stone. The pavilions house a state-of-the-art auditorium and event space and are unified beneath a metal roof canopy, which projects to shade the entrance plaza and shelter visitors from subtropical rains.

Oceanwide Center
Summary
Situated in the rapidly changing Transbay Area of San Francisco, close to Market and the financial district, the two million square foot Oceanwide Center development comprises two high-rise towers, along with impressive new public spaces and important new pedestrian links through downtown. Together, the buildings provide 1.35 million square feet of office space and 650,000 square feet of residential units.
Significant in urban and environmental terms, the development brings together places to live and work with the city’s most important new transport hub, further evolving a sustainable model of high density, mixed-use development that the practice has always promoted. The development forms part of a rezoning plan, which was put in place to encourage density around the Transbay Terminal, and the project represents the last mixed-use development of this scale in the area.

Oceanwide Center
Summary
The super-sized office floor plates are designed to allow tenants a high degree of flexibility, and their open layout is supported by an innovative orthogonal structural system developed for seismic stability. The point where the towers touch the ground is as important as their presence on the skyline. At ground level, the buildings are open, accessible and transparent – their base provides a new ‘urban room’ for the region, and the new pedestrian routes through the site will knit the new scheme with the urban grain of the city.
