Background

About Ben Willis

I'm a driven architecture student with a deep fascination for the connection between people and the urban environment. My studies have fostered a passion for biophilic and environmental architecture, where I believe we can design spaces that promote wellbeing and a sustainable future that work for wildlife and the enviornment.My recent exchange at KEA in Denmark broadened my understanding of architectural and construction technology, giving me valuable hands-on experience. I'm eager to leverage this knowledge and creativity to contribute to innovative and impactful architectural projects.I further my design exploration through proficiency in BIM (Building Information Modeling) and 3D modeling. I'm a certified user of Autodesk AutoCAD and Revit, which allows me to translate ideas into technical drawings and detailed models. To add a touch of realism and bring my designs to life, I enjoy utilizing Enscape for rendering and the Adobe Creative Suite for visual communication.Beyond academics, my love for nature extends to activities like hiking and horticulture. Understanding geographical features firsthand fuels my passion for environmental and biophilic design. By exploring ecosystems and cultivating plant life, I gain a deeper appreciation for the natural world and its potential to influence built environments. This translates into a desire to create architecture that seamlessly integrates with and complements the surrounding environment, promoting human connection with nature.
