From Japan
Collage/painting featuring stones collected from the Kamo River in Kyoto, Japan.
“I collect mundane things from places I travel to and find ideas to transform them into art. This one resembles a riverbed, a waterfall or a path.”

Shape, Space and Light
Architectural render exploring the intimate relationship between space, shape and light.

Time (Orchestra Version) music video
“This is our entry into an international competition run by composer Hans Zimmer to reinterpret his score, ‘Time’, from the film Inception. Our video is a fragmented portrait of a city in lockdown, with themes of isolation, reflection and time running through. We wanted the video to portray the feeling of a fleeting memory, a journey blurred in the passage of time, through the use of multiple locations, a mysterious central figure and various visual effects.”
Charlie Pye
Branch realm
Initial rendering for a lockdown project that reimagines a tree branch at a larger scale, functioning as a realm for humans to explore and dwell.
“The project explores biomimicry as a way to soften our public realm and embed them in nature.”
Three abstract paintings on canvas intuitively exploring colour, texture and form.

#anotherlockdownbake and #wfhbreakfasts
Photographs of plum, lemon and pistachio cakes baked during lockdown, as well as homemade waffles.
“Home alone with a whole lot of spare time and a healthy appetite, I helped facilitate the national flour shortage. Savoury, sweet, you name it, I’ve been eating it.”
Sculptural espresso holder made of wood.
Steel-frame bicycle restored to pristine riding condition.
“I bought the rusty frame of a classic Thorn Audax bike, had it media-blasted to remove the original tatty paintwork, then worked it up though metal etch priming, different top colours and lacquer coats to bring it back to life. I designed a slightly snazzier colour scheme than the original plain blue, drew masking templates for the logos in CAD, and sourced replacement tubing decals online. After finishing the frame, I carefully hunted down a range of vintage and modern components to make the perfect fast-touring bike, polishing and repainting as I went before finally assembling it and taking it on the first of many long rides to come!”

Showpiece drawings
Four hand/tablet drawings from a series created during Hamza’s architectural degree.
“The first two drawings depict a vision for an ad-hoc building system in a Palestinian refugee camp that aims to empower people with economic and social autonomy, while the other two envision a research institute and restorative retreat near Canary Wharf."

Quarantined Life
Hand-cut out of white paper on black background, "quarantine life" is a project depicting the daily routines of different people during lockdown periods in 2020.

The Attractor
Winning entry of the International Association of Shell and Spatial Structures’ 2020 sculpture competition. The sculpture is made of six glue-laminated elements with discrete connections, supported with tension cables, and secured to the ground with helical piles. Planning permission is currently pending at Surrey University’s new campus buildings.
“The brief required us to respond to the subject of climate change. The design – created in collaboration with engineer Volodymyr Opanasiuk – is a three-dimensional representation of the deterministic chaos theory, which was developed by Edward Lorenz in the 1960s. It is a call to recognise the fragility of the world we live in. We must appreciate that small actions now, both positive and negative, can lead to vast differences in the future."

Triangular backyard playhouse constructed using rectangular plywood panels arranged on an A-frame.“Featuring a climbing apparatus, a viewing porthole and an elevated deck base, this is a cosy den space for my kids to gather and share.”
Six drawings of a reimagined metropolis, created with black Japanese ink.
The Stochastic Tower
A series of drawings are an exploration on scale.
“Traditionally we tend to develop a project from site to detail, in a sequential line over time. That supposes an understanding over the scale of what we model at each stage, which is not always easy to grasp. We always run the risk of zooming in early, or too fast, because our screens have no scale.
“These drawings start with a series of parts or variables that are then configured into plans and sections (iterations). They all have a set scale and are drawn by hand, with the hope that after going over the same brief enough times, my hands and eyes would instinctually understand the level of detail required at each scale, regardless of the medium used."

Manarola, Cinque Terre
Watercolour of the Cinque Terre landscape in north-west Italy.
The Floating Studio
Illustrations of a floating architecture studio that take inspiration from real-life and fictional floating architecture, from the floating theatre in Venice to Howl’s Moving Castle.
“The design transforms a traditional fishing trawler into a double-height studio space that allows architects to be inspired by their constantly changing surrounding environment, both sea and sky.”
Mountains
Three digital illustrations that represent overcoming the challenges of lockdown. All three illustrations are a personification of self and others around me: trapped by reality, freed by imagination.
‘Mountains’ is the first illustration in the series where it shows how one felt lost, but despite that new challenge, never gave up in the pursuit of finding some sort of solitude as a ways to escape that forced reality.
Dawn
‘Dawn’ is the second illustration of the series showing people getting together on top of a mountain to celebrate the end of the first lockdown.
Lovers on Lock
‘Lovers on Lock’ is the last illustration of the series and represents how so many people were forced to stay away from each other during the lockdown but could eventually reunite and embrace one another.
Storm Coming
Three paintings exploring landscape textures and light, using traditional watercolour techniques on paper.
“Imaginary places that are not out of reach in lockdown and a chance to escape!”
