Kara is an Architectural Designer with over four years of professional experience. Her passion for sustainable design stems from her strong background in horticulture and interior architecture.

She believes research and innovation has been influenced by nature itself, and has adopted this concept into her personal work.

The significance that psychological health and wellbeing has on design is quintessential when building any structure, and she truly believes that being submerged in nature is one of the best therapeutic tools a person can utilize to find tranquility.

Incorporating nature into a design can become a defining factor in what emotion a space can instigate.

Her goal as a designer is to create impactful and environmentally conscious spaces.
