Project Name Branch & Brain
Brief
Branch & Brain is a Biophillic neurodiverse workplace that re-imagines an existing building through adaptive reuse, transforming traditional workplace through sensory-conscious design, strategic zoning and intuitive way-finding. Designed to support diverse users, the project addresses a commonly faced challenge faced by neurodivergent individuals – maintaining focus in public spaces. The four-storey workspace enhances attention and wellbeing while providing study and restorative spaces for moments of focus and recharge.

Project Name Modern Day Farewell
Brief
Inspired by personal experiences of displacement and change, ‘Modern-Day Farewell’ explores the emotional journey from familiarity into the unknown through three stages: ‘Comfort Zone’, ‘The Alter’ and ‘Farewell’.
