Zoya Khan - BArch 1

Hi, i’m Zoya! I’m in my first year of BA Architecture. I was born and spent a large part of my childhood in Blackburn, Lancashire, before moving to Greater Manchester where I’ve lived since. From a young age I’ve had a strong passion for design and art. I first knew I wanted to become an architect during my GCSEs, and that interest only grew stronger when I studied 3D Design at A Level, where I really flourished and developed a deeper understanding of spatial design and creativity.
For our project, we are designing a community leisure facility in Stockport. I’m particularly interested in exploring how spatial layout, materiality, and atmosphere can influence the way people interact within a space, and how thoughtful design can encourage connection and activity.
I’m looking forward to working collaboratively with my team and developing a proposal that brings together community, leisure, and everyday experience in an engaging way.
