In 2021, I completed a work experience placement at Jestico + Whiles, an architecture firm based in London. During my time there, I worked closely with their in-house Graphic Designer, which gave me valuable insight into how design supports architectural communication.

One of the highlights of the placement was learning to use a new design software — Affinity. This experience expanded my skill set and encouraged me to approach design from a different perspective. While there, I also created a series of Instagram graphics to help showcase some of the studio’s architectural projects.

This experience was both useful and impactful, giving me a deeper understanding of professional design workflows and strengthening my interest in visual communication within creative industries.
