Erin Sanchez
Erin Sanchez is a versatile, determined and liberal architecture student. Her main focus when designing is optimising the given space to produce a purposeful project for the public realm while keeping the design sustainable. For her Final Major Project her drive was to create a space for the existing community to coexist with a new and growing community. With the future of dwellings in her mind she produced a program that allowed work and living to be under the same roof – to implement a new future for the site. This allows deeper collaboration to take place in the community.
