Last year I really struggled with constellation, I struggled to really understand the topic, relate it to my subject and then even more so to write the essays, as I didn’t feel that I had been given the right guidance to be able to write so much.
Only one lecture in and I feel very differently about this year, I was very lucky in being able to get the topic of sustainable practices, the tutor is easy to follow and teaches the subject at a level that so far I have understood. I have a lot more hope for my constellation essay this term than I had the whole of last year.
I have found the topic very interesting so far, I am interested personally in doing whatever I can for the planet, and find it interesting to grow my knowledge on the subject. What i found most interesting is the solutions to problems that as a world we have come up with such as using different plastics that are biodegradable and putting different products into different packaging however it doesn’t solve the wider issue, as these new packages also cause issues within our environment.
Carrying on I am excited to see how I can take this into Interior Design and how I will be able to use this information and apply it to all my projects.
I strongly believe that the environments that we live in profoundly affects us as individuals. Having a sense of comfort and belonging in a space can nurture us to have a healthy mindset and outlook on life. I am driven to make a difference and improve the lives of others through design, whilst simultaneously demonstrating the impact that our environment has on us. This ethos is applied to every design that I create.

My driving principle is to create a space that will change someone's life for the better, as well as being unique, inspiring, and captivating; something no one has seen before and will never forget. During any stage of the design process I allow myself to imagine how it would feel to be in the space that I am creating, and how I want it to feel for all the users of this space, but also how the clients wants it to feel. I try to express this emotion and feeling through my designs, to portray the space to the best possible standard. I have always been intrigued in how every individual feels differently when the confront a space and I want to utilise these feelings within my work.

My work aims to create something fascinating that will stand out, but also encourage an emotional response to an environment. The projects that I have been a part of have shown me that I am determined to create something profound and impactful that will change how we see our current environments; working as an individual or as part of a team. I believe that this year I have done this on a very small scale, this has only encouraged my passion to design.
