about me

I am 31 years old, from South Africa. I have worked in Amsterdam and Japan, returning home to South Africa after 7 years abroad.

After receiving a full scholarship I lived in Japan for 5 years, completing a Masters degree in Sustainable Energy and Information Technology at Osaka University in March 2019. 

During weekends I got to experience hands-on site exposure of Japanese wood with an architect friend of mine building his house in Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo.

YASUI
ARCHITECTS

At Yasui architects & engineers I worked on an underground train station in a team of 4 preparing drawings for construction.


It was a really great experience working in a whole new language that I just learnt a few years ago. I think its really fortunate that architecture is visual - it works well for living and working abroad.

OTHER PROJECTS

hotels in japan

Although the subway station has been my main baby at the Yasui architecture firm, initially I was placed on a few other projects doing tasks such as design options, fire evacuation routes and ensuring regulations were adhered to; such as the Japanese Shade regulations.
