At Mikhail Riches, Connie has been working on the detail design of Passivhaus post-graduate housing at Owlstone Croft in Cambridge and Phase 4 of the refurbishment of grade II listed Park Hill.
Connie’s previous experience includes designing exhibitions, private homes and education campuses. She studied at the University of Sheffield and the London School of Architecture, graduating from both with distinctions. Her Master’s thesis ‘Towards Regenerative Dwelling’ readdressed current destructive construction practice to propose an alternative approach to dwelling – one that is healthy at a planetary, local and individual level. The project was highly commended by the Architects Journal for their Post Graduate Student Prize.
Her research into opportunities for widening accessibility of sustainable retrofit was displayed at the Building Centres’ Retrofit 23 exhibition and she has presented the project at panel events and as part of the Retrofit Reimagined Festival. She has also served as a Next Generation Design Review Panel Member for Islington Council.
Connie is interested in the long term and wider impact of design, especially the use of closed loop systems to create architecture that reconnects the home with its inhabitants and surrounding environment.
