I am a BA (Hons) Architecture Student at Birmingham City University. Those last few years in University allowed me to develop myself and encouraged and motivated me to become better in my work as an architecture student. My experience helped me to broaden my knowledge and combine my drawing skills with digital software and new technologies.
My passion for architecture developed because of my love for creating, making and designing. The fascination between design, environment and human interaction with architecture started in the early years. All of this is not what we see, it is what we experience and acknowledge. PORTA(L) Project is the final project for my final year in University. It represents my interest in the stated above through thresholds. It is a dialogue about creativity and technical intent and understanding of thresholds. Thresholds in architecture can be represented not only in architectural elements, such as doorways, but also through materiality, light, nature, texture, experience, senses and emotions. This project follows an ethos- ‘Complexity within Simplicity’ and explains the meaning of thresholds which we recognize to a subliminal level in our daily lives. PORTA(L) Project proves that every day we pass by or through a threshold and visually clarifies it.
