ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIOR DESIGN PERSONAL STATEMENT

Ambitious, meticulous, creative and passion for design are qualities which I believe will make me successful in
achieving excellent academic and industry results in architecture, interior and spatial design. 'Having a deep
understanding of physics, excellent ability to project manage and profound creativity, I believe I can contribute to
the academic environment your university provides. Completing Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical Engineering, I
have a proven high level of research skills, meticulous design techniques, methodical idea generation and
development, through to completion. 'Capitalising on my ability to solve problems and produce new ideas, with
systematic improvements and reliability. 'I ensure the design creativity meets safety regulations while keeping the
audience in mind.

My strengths lie in my capacity to understand, calculate and design precise concepts, within innovative creativity
within cross-functional project teams. 'I can bring my natural creativity and innovative perspectives, alongside my
engineering degree, which reaffirms my propensity for accuracy, function and endurance in design and structure.

Demonstrating my ability and commitment to pursuing a career in this field, I have undertaken important and
relevant courses to further develop my skills and build my portfolio. 'This includes a professional course at The
Interior Design School, gaining a firm grounding in the design process, interior elements and drawing techniques. 'I
have also developed my visual vocabulary required to present work to clients. I have cultivated my skills in
residential and commercial design through various innovative projects.

Completing the 3DS Max and Vray Advanced Course has given me the powerful, industry standard tools needed
to create architectural and interior visualisations. Using these professional programs I am able to create high
quality visuals for practical applications. I have learnt how to work in a production environment, proficiently
utilise a variety of techniques and materials to texture models, produce realistic light sources, render scenes, use
Photoshop, post-processing and perceive compositional techniques.

Successfully receiving an AutoCAD professional certification, the course provided intensive and comprehensive
practical training, including building, editing, managing and organising drawings; object selection and manipulation;
3D modelling, surfacing and rendering; applications for DesignCenter; annotating, dimensioning and productive
plotting. I have also completed an architectural sketching course.

These comprehensive courses reflect my drive and ambition to succeed in this dynamic world of design. I am
confident to take a brief, analyse the requirements, provide a visual interpretation, present the final project and
evaluate the process and outcomes. The ability to use industry standard programs proficiently gives me a solid
competitive advantage in today's complex marketplace.

I have successfully completed a three month work placement as project advisor for office design. Utilising my design
skills and creativity, I was responsible for the refurbishment and redecoration of the offices. I continually maintain
my design techniques and knowledge by independently producing designs, and evaluating historical and
contemporary space. I take inspiration from peer reviewed journals such as John Wardle Architects, and trade
magazines such as Detail, FX and Idfx.

A combination of precise engineering and technical design skills, passion for imaginative design and motivation, I
choose to succeed in this demanding and dynamic field of design. ''My creativity and natural curiosity push
boundaries reflecting my innovative style to produce substantial, effective and striking designs while considering
the physical environment and social sensitivity in contemporary society. I believe these qualities and skills make
me a competent candidate, motivated to succeed on this course and in future endeavours.
