Hi, my name is Rayyan, and I am a MArch 1 student, currently part of the Continuity atelier. I completed my undergraduate degree in architecture in India, where I gained experience working in practice across a range of projects, from small-scale residential work to urban-scale master planning. Alongside this, I also worked on independent professional projects, which helped me build confidence in both design thinking and technical delivery.

Through both university study and professional practice, I have developed a strong interest in adaptive reuse and context-led design. I am particularly interested in how architecture can respect heritage and craft while creating meaningful, people-centred spaces for the future.

I am excited to engage with the Unitarian church on this live project. Learning about their values of openness and community has been incredibly valuable, and I look forward to contributing thoughtfully to a design that supports their long-term vision.
