About Me

Hi! I am Thames, a passionate architectural designer and researcher dedicated to exploring the intersection of innovation, sustainability, and human experience in the built environment. As a recent graduate from the University of Edinburgh with a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, my work is shaped by a global perspective, informed by my academic journey and diverse cultural experiences.

With a background in architectural theory, environmental design, and material experimentation, I strive to create spaces that are both conceptually rich and technically sound. My interest in sustainable architecture and structural innovation has led me to investigate modular construction, adaptive reuse, and passive environmental strategies, ensuring that my designs respond thoughtfully to their context and climate.

Beyond academia, I have worked extensively on refining my portfolio, professional outreach, and digital presence, curating an evolving body of work that reflects my design philosophy and research driven approach. My engagement with industry professionals, architectural firms, and research institutions continues to shape my understanding of contemporary practice, pushing me toward a career that bridges design, research, and technology.

Currently, I am seeking opportunities to contribute as a Part 1 Architectural Assistant in Japan or internationally, where I can apply my skills, learn from experienced practitioners, and further develop my expertise in sustainable and forward-thinking design methodologies.

This platform serves as a space to share my work, research, and reflections—a growing archive of architectural explorations. I invite you to explore my portfolio, engage with my blog, and join me on this journey of continuous learning and architectural discovery.
