EXPERIENCE & WORKS COLLECTION
Summary:
‘Experience & Works Collection’ is a brief summary of experience attained through collaborating within world renowned architectural design studios. This provided access to what can only be termed as outstanding likeminded clients who commissioned projects & consultants leading to access of specialist facilities both in studio & industry.
One of the core principals in all these studios was their attitude towards investigation, research & development. Existing or new potential solutions were all examined & would be carefully assessed to consider aesthetics, physical performance, benefits all be evaluated against cost & project implications.
It was this experience, which whilst running in parallel with my own thoughts assisted in the formulisation of the blueprint for ‘Elemental Architecture & Design (EA & D)’. This section should be read in conjunction with ‘Resume: Background Information’.
The below listed studios are those which provide the greatest of collaboration & experience in my early years, but only the ‘Work’ displayed is from Eva Jiricna Architects.
As former Director of Eva Jiricna Architects- Technical:
I possess a wealth of experience having worked on all the most significant EJA projects and competitions. As an Architect & Director I undertook my own projects, but also was responsible for the overview of the practice’s schemes providing guidance on the all stages of the RIBA Plan of Work- ‘strategic definition’ through to ‘in use’. This also included technical & coordination matters. Additional duties included the administration of the PI Insurance, CDM / H & S frameworks ensuring that the office functioned productively and efficiently. Yes, it’s not all design, essential frameworks of management & administration run in parallel.
Many of the projects I collaborated in at EJA & with other Consultants have been well received, accredited & awarded.
