Ellie Redman

Ellie completed her Bachelor of Architecture at Kingston School of Art, where she graduated with first class honours. Her third year thesis project looked to reimagine the campus typology at the University of Ibadan, tackling issues of cultural and personal identity within the context of a tropical modernist environment.

The design included the adapted reuse of existing structures on the site, with interventions that aimed to improve a sense of identity within the school.
