Curriculum Vitae

02

ACADEMICThroughout my five years of studies, I have built up a strong working portfolio that consists of a wide variety of different projects that deals with a range of different topics. At the beginning of each aca-demic year, each projects brief and site has to be individually determined. This required a thorough analysis and investigation into a particular area of interest. Areas of interests in my projects ranges from spatial conditions of darkness and material investigation of granite, to more politically and so-cially driven projects on healthcare and social welfare. These projects also demonstrate my abilities of using a wide spectrum of media to represent different ideas, from hand drawings (both construct-ed and freehand) to computer generated models and highly precise and intricate physical models.

Instead of using western medicine, the clinics will uti-lise alternative methods of treatment, such as Chinese and African herbal medicine and Ayurvedic medicine. This would directly reflect the demographics of the local population, and providing treatment methods that are more familiar and sensitive with the local community.

Acupuncture involves the use of needles, which are placed at specic poi-nts and left in the body for a short period of time. With proper needle pla-cement, it is believed that the body releases endorphins and engages ner-ve endings in the body. This helps to block pain and restore the bodys fu-nctions for optimal health

the leaves of medicinal plants are boiled and resulting steam is given to the whole body. This Ay-urveda treatment is helpful in removing the impurities from the body, r-educing fat and also helpful to recover from some skin diseases. This Ay-urvedic Therapy is a part of the Panchakarma procedures

This is a treatment process where the patient is made to lie on a special wooden bed after which, the medicated oil/ milk or buttermilk etc. are po-ured in a prescribed, continuous stream on his head by the therapist w-ho is assisted in this treatment by other therapists to help with the oil application over the body of the therapy taker

This is a specialized treatment, also known as royal treatment, means the squeezing of a cloth soaked in oil over the body. During this treatment the guest remains in the sitting position and the medicated oils are then ap-plied over the head and body

Both an investigation of the current health care service of the United Kingdom and an examination of the health conditions of modern health care facilities. My final project calls for a complete overhaul of a local health care service in Peckham, London. The brief consists of 25 alternative health clinics that can be integrated into the urban fabric of the local community, making ac-cess to health care far easier, efficient and more dynamic, as it would become a part of the everyday process. For example, going to the supermarket also mean accessing the dietician; going to the gym can get access to the physi-otherapist; and going to the local butchers can access the minor surgery clinic.

An Alternative Health System

Medicalization is a concept rst introduced by Ivan Illich, who famously attacked the medical establishment with his book Medical Nemesis, in which he proposed that the only way to reverse the eect of medicalization was to shift the power of health care from physician to patient. However, I would like to cast a more critical eye over his theory of self-care; as forty years post Medical Nemesis indicates, the ability of patients to administer their own health has never been greater. Yet the medicalization of our society has only increased. Therefore I argue that if we are to liberate from a medicalised society, it does not lie in the patients own hands, but rather, it is within the social, societal and environmental context surrounding the patient, as an increasing amount of illness are attributed to these factors.

Clinic Typologies Blueprint For A New Alternative Health Service

Modern medical services are no longer hospital based and physician directed, instead, its saturated and diused into the urban fabric of the city, where every setting of human beings reside and frequent have become places of medical intervention. Therefore, it can be said that our society is becoming ever increasingly medicalised. With this notion in mind; I would like to exp-lore the spatial implications of a medicalised society, in particular the therapeutic potentials of those everyday setting where human beings reside and frequent.

Medicalization is a concept rst introduced by Ivan Illich, who famously attacked the medical establishment with his book Medical Nemesis, in which he proposed that the only way to reve-rse the eect of medicalization was to shift the power of health care from physician to patient. However, I would like to cast a more critical eye over his theory of self-care; as forty years post Medical Nemesis indicates, the ability of patients to administer their own health has never been greater. Yet the medicalization of our society has only increased. Therefore I argue that if we are to liberate from a medicalised society, it does not lie in the patients own hands, but rather, it is within the social, societal and environmental context surrounding the patient, as an incre-asing amount of illness are attributed to these factors.

My design proposal is set 50 years ahead in the future in 2060, when the NHS is predicted to have been fully privatised from the government. Instead it would be operated and ran by phar-maceutical corporations, who controls and manipulates who, why and how we access its health services.

THE NEW ALTERNATIVE HEALTH SERVICE IN PECKHAM, LONDON. 2012 - MAKING HEALTH CARE MORE ACCESSIBLE -

04

The project also deals with the possible consequences of the new alternative health care system on an urban scale, how it could alter the physical appearance of the local community. Due to the pri-vatisation of the health care ser-vice, individual households would be able to produce the necessary herbal products the clinics need to operate, they could do so on their roof tops, or even using ac-tive green faades to grow herbs. More and more of the community would take part in growing herb, to supply the clinic and make money, and also for self-treat-ment and prevention, eventually, the overall physical appearance of the community could take on an entirely new perspective.

HEALTHY CLINICAL SPACESAbove: Transitional spaces of the Shira Dharo Clinic and its herbarium and plantation room, which the patient have to use to collect the herb required for their treatment process. In do-ing so, the patient would learn about the me-dicinal properties of different plants and herbs. Opposite: Interior of the fire cupping clinic above the supermarket. Old and disused fire cups are used for the cladding of the building, these essentially act as lenses, filtering and captur-ing sun light coming into the treatment room.

The second aim of the project together with the Thesis is to intro-duce more healthy medical spaces that can actively contribute to well-being of the users. Through the Thesis investigation, which found current medical spaces actually increased the anxiety and stress levels of patients and staff, therefore, counterproductive to the whole treatment or healing process. Each of the proposed clinic seek to calm and reduce the stress experienced by visiting health clinics, either through introducing access to nature inside the medical space and using natural and soft materials (above), and wherever possible use natural lighting and ventilation (far left), these elements all help to contribute to an medical environ-ment that can actively help the treatment or healing process.

The Shiro Dhara clinic is respon-sible for the treatment of BMI (body mass index) disorders, such as patients who suffer from ano-rexia or obesity, or for those who are conscious about their body weight. For this reason, the clinic would be situated above the lo-cal clothing store, where it would be more convinent for shoppers to access the clinic at the same time as buying clothes. The clinic can be directly acceesed from the changing rooms inside the cloth-ing store. An external elevator takes the patients upto the roof level, where the clinic is located.

SECTION SHIRO DHARA CLINIC

The Swedana clinic deals with dermatological disorders, as such; it would be situated behind hair dressers and beauty salons. This would be more convenient for customer who suffers from der-matological complains, to visit the clinic at the same time as getting a haircut or seeing the beautician. Furthermore, the staff in the salon or beautician might even spot po-tential dermatological disorders, in which the customer who access the clinic straight away, prevent-ing worsening of the condition.

SECTION SWEDANA CLINIC

These sections illustrate how the proposed clinics are integrated into the ur-ban fabric of the local community. They form a part of the process of the daily routine of local residents, making accessing healthcare a part of everyday life, thus health care in the future have a higher emphasis on prevention.

This zoetrope was part of a project that examined vulnerable communities in contemporary societies, in particular, modern day Transient Communities. The aim was to identify the different vulnerabilities these communities face, which are preventing them from leading a transient life. These include social in-tegration, lack of education and employment opportunities and environmental degradation. The zoe-trope was a direct response to this brief and it represents a series of strategies that protected the Travelling Communities and the vulnerabilities they face and encouraged them to lead a mobile life once again. The main purpose of using a zoetrope to illustrate these strategies was its emphasis on movement and transience, highlighting the idea of mobility and a mobile life.

A zoetrope is a device that produces an illusion of action from a rapid succession of static pictures. While traditional zoetrope produced only a two-dimensional animation, the zoetrope I created produces a three-dimensional animation, this is achieved by making a series of repeated physical models that are synced with a strobe light flashing at the same speed as per number of models.

ZOETROPE FABRICATIONPROCESSES, 2011

ZOETROPE

15

The zoetrope measures 1.2 meters in diameter and consist of 15 frames of models, which are made up of 350 different individual mod-els made from over 1500 separate elements. Some of the elements were laser cut, while oth-ers were hand moulded with clay. In order to create a seamless movement of the animation, each of the model had to be very accurately located onto the base plate, otherwise it would create an wobble effect to the animation.

ZOETROPE MODEL

17

To operate the zoetrope, a totally darkened space is required, plus a strobe light flashing 15 times per second. This corresponds with the 15 frames of models on the zoetrope, mak-ing the animation into a 1 second real-life sequence. The zoetrope is mounted onto a specially constructed table thats equipped with a car windscreen wiper engine fitted at the centre point, which spins the zoetrope at 60rmp. Four roller skate wheels on 4 sides of the table adds further support to the zoe-trope and help the rotation of the model.

The horticutural club and aroma-therapy centre is a direct response to the social and economic dif-ficulties experienced by the East London borough of Newham. The brief utilises the high levels of working age adult unemployment and low levels of local community health, to develop a horticultural club, which would be run and man-aged by the unemployed local residents, and through a series of development phases, the horticul-tural club could generate income and investment for the creation of the alternative treatment centre, which would provide affordable, and high quality, and more impor-tantly, environmentally low-impact health-care for the local com-munity, through the taking part of rigorous and healthy garden-ing work in the horticultural club, and using alternative treatment processes such as aromatherapy and herbal therapy cultivated in the horticultural club to be used in the alternative treatment centre

The Institute of Bathymetry is a Deep Sea Re-search facility situated in the indutrial harbour in Barcelona. The project was insipired by the Spanish explorer Narciso Monturiol, who was the first person in the world to sucessfully develope a submarine, and tested it in the harbours of Barcelona, right next to the site. The project responses to the historical lineage, and celebrates the archievements of this ex-plorer. Furthermore, the project dives deeper into the depth, and explores the changing atmospheric conditions of the ocean, such as the light and pressure of the abyss, and ar-chitecturally translates them into different propositions for the Institute of Bathymetry.

AXIAL OF CLINIC

COMPETITIONIdeas and interests developed in the academic field were further explored in various architectural competitions I have taken part in. These range from large scale projects like the redevelopment of a

International Peace Park and Arctic Labo-ratory centre, Bering Strait, 2009

The proposal aims at connecting the East and West ends of the Bering Strait by construct-ing an undersea tunnel from Cape Dezhnev in Siberia, Russia, to Cape Prince of Wales in Alaska, United States. The underwater tunnel would help to minimize damage caused by the extreme weather of the Bering Strait. At the same time, I also developed a Peace Park at the centre of the scheme along the International Dateline. This Peace Park consists of a series of memorials that refer to different conflicts in hu-man history and the strategic location of these memorials along the International Dateline symbolizes the timelessness and eternity of the Peace Park, and Peace itself. The project was awarded the 3rd prize for its poetic interpre-tation of the programme and its engage-ment with the unique natural environment of the Bering Strait, and subsequently it has been exhibited and published internationally.

Memorial/ Peace Park, Bering Strait Ideas competitionEach memorial consists of fragmented pieces of structures that have inspired by the mechanics of clocks and watches. They sit on the frozen, desolate landscape, repre-senting a shattered and broken society, a civilization at war and conflict. But dur-ing one particular moment on one particular day of the year, which is determined by the date of the end of that conflict being represented, the fragmented pieces would come together through the unique angle of the sun to form a perfect circle in the shape of a shadow. (images below) This is a metaphor for the creation of peace and unification, and marks the date of the end of a conflict. However, as the ice be-low the memorials melts and breaks away due to the warming of the Arctic seas, these structures are designed to break and fall into the ocean, thus becoming a ba-rometer and metaphor for the changing environment and the fragility of our planet.
