Architect (UK) and Passivhaus designer, I am passionate about technical sustainable building design and detailing. I have experience designing to Net Zero targets, reducing embodied carbon and operational energy, and guiding key stakeholders through the process.
Most recently, I have been working in Glasgow on a retrofit archive facility and on the Isle of Skye on several projects, including bespoke housing, a feasibility study of a net zero office retrofit and the preparation of an affordable housing development in the highlands

Role
Architect
Easter Cloanlawers, Loch Tay
This project saw the conversion of an existing steading on the north side of Loch Tay into a two-storey residential unit. The plans aim to maximise the views over Loch Tay by adding a timber-clad storey, housing primary living spaces orientated towards the Loch. The pitched roofs and material palette aim to contextualise the design and refer to traditional Scottish vernacular architecture.
