POPULOUS EMEA

I returned to London in January 2019 to commence a job with Populous London after being contacted while I was on my way back to Australia. Having had worked in stadium architecture most recently, I saw this as an opportunity to further my work experience with a reputable company that I admired.

I was part of the team procured to work on the Madison Square Garden Sphere located in Greater London from pre-planning approval and began to work with the MEP team to efficiently co-ordinate with multiple subconsultants, a challenge considering the complex geometry of the building.

Upon on completion of the more complex MEP items I moved on to design, planning and coordination of the upper 11 levels. More specifically this involved resolution and optimisation of the upper plant rooms- such as access issues, structure, MEP coordination, rigging coordination with overlay considerations and material specification.

At this point, I was obliged to return home for family reasons with potential for further employment at the end of my 6 month fixed term. I then transferred offices to Brisbane through Populous.
