My introduction to M&E design in the UK began with the Burnthwaite House project shortly after joining Hestia in 2021. This project provided an opportunity to not only demonstrate my design expertise but also contribute to the development of the company’s internal resources. Recognizing a need for standardized design materials, I leveraged my prior experience to create comprehensive libraries, management spreadsheets, and design process flowcharts, enhancing the efficiency and consistency of future projects
For Burnthwaite House, I focused on electrical and lighting design, meticulously coordinating my work with the existing mechanical and structural drawings provided by external consultants. This involved extensive clash detection and resolution to ensure a seamless integration of all building systems. Furthermore, I actively participated in the interior design process during the construction phase, collaborating with the team to ensure every element of the home aligned with the client’s vision and preferences.
