Hi everyone, I’m Lara! I’m currently studying my Master of Architecture at MSA. I previously completed my undergraduate degree in 2022 before working for two years at a Saudi architecture firm specializing in heritage preservation and adaptive reuse. During my time there, I worked on a diverse range of projects across healthcare, education, commercial, and residential sectors, gaining valuable insight into how heritage buildings can be revitalized to meet modern needs while safeguarding their historical and cultural essence.

I have a deep passion for heritage architecture and its role in maintaining a strong connection between the past and present. I’m particularly interested in how thoughtful conservation and adaptive reuse can create meaningful spaces that serve communities while respecting historical integrity.

I’m excited to bring these ideas into our MSA Live project and work alongside a great team to create a vibrant and inspiring space for the students at Prospect Vale Primary. Through thoughtful design, we can shape an environment that not only supports their learning and creativity but also strengthens their connection to the wider community!
