Hi, I’m Liesje, I’m a BA1 Architecture student here at MSA. I am thoroughly enjoying the experience so far, particularly when progressing my initial ideas into workable concepts.
I’m looking forward to developing a new skill set through the work I do during MSA live, and I think that Cyan+ is the perfect opportunity to achieve this.

As a group we went out on a site exploration, following a suggested route that we developed for our project. Starting by Platt Fields Pond, we walked through the park, chatting and making note of the surrounding environment. We then walked through Rusholme, passing multiple green spaces and noting their clear potential, while also acknowledging drawbacks and how to tackle them. Our walking route ended in Whitworth park, and we then continued to the MTC to consolidate our thoughts and findings. It was a lovely way to both generate ideas from the site, and interact with each other more after our first meeting. This was a very valuable day!
