About
I’m an architectural illustrator based in Manchester. I began my career at 5th Studio, where I worked closely with Philip Buckingham for over 4 years. During my time there, I produced thousands of architectural illustrations and collaborated on projects for renowned firms such as HOK, Grimshaw, and others. My background also includes work as a concept artist in the game industry, which has given me a strong foundation in visual storytelling and design communication.
I specialize in architectural illustration, producing detailed drawings including perspectives, axonometrics, and visual narratives to support master plans, planning applications, and public consultations. I work with both digital and hand-drawn techniques to create visually engaging architectural visuals that bring master plans, urban designs, and planning proposals to life. My skills include mood, atmosphere, and storytelling to convey early-stage ideas for client presentations, competitions, and design development.
