A London based MA Architecture Graduate, with a passion for small scale detailed design, and
the great outdoors.
Following her BA (Hons) Architecture studies at Central St Martins, Olivia was nominated for both the 2017 Mullen Lowe Nova Award, and was awarded the 2017 Knight Frank Prize for her final project. She then went on to work for two years at a small sustainable architecture practice. It was here that Olivia developed a love of small scale and detailed projects, branching out into an interest in furniture design.
Over the course of her MA Arch work, a specialism in rural (specifically saltmarsh) flooding formed, a reoccurring interest that has formed the backbone of her work since her undergraduate degree.
Most recently however Olivia has spent the past year working at Ben Pentreath, honing her knowledge in the field of heritage work and expanding her interest in interior design.
