Having grown up in rural Galway, I’ve always been surrounded by vast natural landscape and sea. Often I would walk through these fields, along the shore and down narrow winding roads, until I reached a place to sit and take in my surroundings. My Library insert for my Semester 1 project was intended to recreate my experience of a walk in rural Ireland and to enhance the users imagination within a library setting.

Having worked on Building sites since a teenager, I’ve acquired a love for construction. The way each component comes together to create a home that will last a life time has always interested me. Practically I’ve worked with materials on site, but the desire to learn how to shape and form these materials through drawing to create physical, well designed, structures is what has drawn me to study architectural design in Sligo.
