Callum Ahmed

-I am passionate about design and architecture, fuelled by a variety of academic and personal experiences While studying graphic design, I developed a sharp eye for the visual aesthetics, dimensions, and small details of different architectural styles I believe this is a very fundamental ability in shaping architecture because it helps me visualize structures in ways that effectively combine both form and function

-This understanding of the discipline was further deepened in the expanded study program of architecture I studied the rebirth of architecture during the Renaissance, focusing mainly on Italy and its influence on modern design The study included major architectural landmarks, such as the Cologne Cathedral in Germany and the Château de Chambord in France, which further developed my assessment of historical structures and their impact on modern architecture

-Outside of formal education, interest in drawing buildings has been a prominent idea within my art This has helped me develop my ability to perceive architectural forms in both 2D and 3D This skill allows me to turn abstract ideas into tangible designs that express the essence of the structure in its most basic form In addition, photography has honed my sense of perspective and detail on how best to frame the nature and environment of buildings The heightened sensitivity to light, shadow, and scale that developed in photography is what helped me capture and design architectural spaces
-These experiences, from professional learning to personal passions, have given me a diverse skill set that responds well to the multifaceted demands of the architectural field I look forward to continuing my growth in a professional architectural role where I can put these skills into practice, contributing to the creation of functional, beautiful, and meaningful spaces
