Statement
Our relationship with the built environment is constantly evolving as architecture, now more than ever, has such a significant influence on people and their perception of a place. I am inspired by the opportunity to study architecture at MSA and be a part of this influence through exploring endless, creative possibilities. I am particularly interested in the architecture course due to the combination of practical, theoretical and creative thinking thus allowing development of skills in both conceptualization and the ability to practically apply ideas. The seamless integration of modern, innovative architecture with the historical, Victorian surroundings makes Manchester an appealing place to study. A building which I recently visited was Casa Mila, designed by architect Antonio Gaudi. I was captivated by the innovation of the design and how the building integrates within the city of Barcelona whilst also expressing individuality and providing significant variation to its surroundings
