Reparative is a community space that responds to overconsumption by making the process of repair visible. The building organises the lifecycle of materials into a clear sequence: drop-off, dismantling, storage, repair, and reuse. Each stage is expressed through different spatial and material qualities, guiding users through the journey of an object. Hard materials such as concrete and steel define areas of dismantling, while warmer materials like timber appear in repair spaces to support careful, hands-on work. By exposing these processes to the public, the project encourages responsibility, extends the life of materials, and promotes a culture of repair and reuse.

I am interested in architecture that responds to everyday problems and encourages people to think differently about how they use space and materials. My work focuses on creating environments that are honest, practical, and socially meaningful. I believe architecture should make processes visible rather than hidden, allowing people to understand the systems behind what they use. Through design, I aim to explore how spaces can influence behaviour, promote responsibility, and support more thoughtful ways of living, especially in response to issues such as waste, overconsumption, and material care.
