02 IN THE LAST 3 YEARS, THROUGH A LOT OF SELF-REFLECTION, EXPERIMENTATION AND WORK EXPERIENCE, I HAVE FOUND MY PASSIONS BEING ORIENTED TOWARDS THE INTERIOR DESIGN INDUSTRY. MY GOAL IS TO QUALIFY AND SPECIALIZE AS AN INTERIOR ARCHITECT.CONSEQUENTLY, I HAVE MADE THE EFFORT TO PURSUE OPPORTUNITIES WHEREIN I CAN CONVERT THIS ‘DESIRE’ INTO REALITY. EVIDENCE OF MY GROWTH IN THIS PHASE OF MY DESIGN JOURNEY IS CAPTURED BY THE CONCEPTUAL ‘MY ABODE’ PROJECT COMPLETED BETWEEN 2016 AND 2017. 2 YEARS AFTER TAKING THE FIRST STEPS TOWARDS MY INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE GOAL, I FIND MYSELF BLESSED TO BE WORKING IN K/M2K AS A JUNIOR INTERIOR DESIGNER. IN THIS WORK ENVIRONMENT , I DAILY FIND MYSELF LEARNING AN ABUNDANCE OF LESSONS WHICH , I BELIEVE, HAVE ALREADY BEGUN TO INFLUENCE MY SKILL SET . I ALSO FIND MY UNDERSTANDING OF THE FIELD EXPANDING AT AN INCREDIBLE RATE. HOWEVER, THE MORE I LEARN, THE LESS I REALIZE I KNOW AND UNDERSTAND. IN MY PORTFOLIO, READERS WILL WITNESS SOME OF THE RESULTS OF THE WORK I HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE INVOLVED IN AT THE OFFICE. IN ADDITION TO THIS JOUNERY OF GROWTH IN THE WORKPLACE, I HAVE ALSO BEEN MAKING AN EFFORT TO DETERMINE WHAT SORT OF SIGNATURE I WOULD LIKE TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH IN THE FUTURE. I HAVE FOUND MYSELF BEING ATTRACTED TOWARDS SPECIALIZING IN DESIGN SUSTAINABILITY. THIS IS A CONSEQUENCE OF MY DESIRE TO BECOME AN INTERIOR ARCHITECT OF VALUE, WHEREIN I AM ABLE TO MAKE A POSITIVE CONTRIBUTION TO SOCIETY AND THE ENVIRONMENT WITHIN MY GOD-GIVEN ABILITIES.MY RECENT DESIRE TO SPECIALIZE IN SUSTAINABLE DESIGN WILL ONLY BE EVIDENT IN THE ARCHITECTURE & INTERIORS CONCEPTUAL PROJECTS ‘MY ABODE’ , WHERE I HAVE CONSCIOUSLY SOUGHT TO INTEGRATE ‘GREEN’ METHODS INTO MY DESIGN PROPOSALS.
ARCHITECTURE/INTERIOR PORTFOLIO
