About David

Hey there, I'm David, a seasoned Graduate Architect with over a decade of hands-on experience in New Zealand and the UK. I'm thrilled to share my knowledge in presentation, design, construction documentation, ArchiCAD and project delivery with you.

In the realm of design, I've led projects of various scales, specializing in 3D structural design and turning abstract concepts into real construction drawings. Let's work together on honing your conceptualization skills, ensuring your designs not only meet functional needs but also wow with innovative and aesthetic solutions. We'll dive into refining your presentation techniques, focusing on effectively communicating your design intent through drawings and visualizations.

Crafting a killer portfolio is key in the competitive world of architecture. Drawing from my experience, I can guide you in creating a portfolio that showcases your skills, projects, and unique design approach. I'll share insights on organizing and presenting your work, highlighting key projects, and crafting narratives that grab the attention of universities, employers, or clients.

Proficiency in architectural software is a game-changer. With my expertise, including training sessions I've conducted in offices I've worked in, I offer hands-on ArchiCAD training. Whether you're a beginner or looking to master advanced features, we'll navigate ArchiCAD together for conceptualization, design development, and documentation. Real-world examples and practical exercises will boost your confidence in using this powerful tool.

Beyond design, I've got insights into effective project management and collaboration. We'll delve into coordinating with clients and contractors, maintaining a friendly yet professional demeanor. You'll learn to manage timelines, budgets, and project teams, gaining a holistic understanding of the architectural process.

My creative roots in sculpture and a love for the 3D form bring an artistic touch to architecture. I'll inspire you to infuse creativity into your designs, exploring the artistic aspects that make architecture truly compelling. Through discussions, critiques, and hands-on exercises, we'll delve into the artistic dimensions of architecture.

Communication skills are a must in the architectural world. I'll share techniques to convey complex ideas with clarity, be it through drawings, reports, or verbal communication. This skill is vital for effective collaboration and for presenting and defending your design decisions.

I'm genuinely excited about guiding you on your architectural journey. Together, we'll explore the ins and outs of architecture, and I'll share my wealth of experience to help you navigate and thrive in this exciting field. Let's embark on this journey together!

About the lesson

In our sessions, I make it a priority to understand your unique learning style and requirements so that I can tailor my teaching methods just for you.

Prior to the session, we will establish the goal / intended outcome which I will use to map out our time together so you get the most out of our time. We'll concentrate on practical applications and outcomes, tackling architectural challenges together, and ensuring you gain hands-on experience in concept design, presentation techniques, portfolio preparation, and ArchiCAD as needed. For instance, if your goal is to refine your portfolio or master ArchiCAD, we'll tailor our sessions to address these objectives systematically, allowing you to track your progress effectively. Expect engaging discussions, design critiques, and constructive feedback as key elements in our learning journey.

I understand the importance of finding the right balance between depth and efficiency. Our lessons are designed to be comprehensive yet focused, usually lasting around 1.5 to 2 hours. This timeframe allows us to explore concepts in-depth, work on practical exercises, and engage in meaningful discussions without overwhelming you.

With my Master's in Architecture (M.Arch) and over a decade of professional experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge to our tutoring sessions. My background involves extensive work with prestigious architectural firms in both the UK and New Zealand, where I've been involved in diverse projects, including residential, commercial, public, and educational ventures. I've led projects, provided mentorship, and contributed across all phases of development. My love for architecture extends to teaching, and I'm excited to share insights gained from practical experiences with you.

Our tutoring sessions are crafted for aspiring architects like yourself at various levels—whether you're pursuing an architectural degree or a professional seeking skill enhancement. I'm here to guide you, regardless of your age or experience, ensuring our lessons are adapted to meet your specific needs and goals. Feel free to share your preferences and aspirations, and we'll tailor our sessions accordingly.
