Jess completed her BA(Hons) Interior Architecture + Design in May 2021. She joined CE+CA in January 2022, having previously worked at Studio Polpo and Sheffield Hallam, teaching on the IA+D course. Jess’ approach to design is driven by an interest in social enterprise, material re-use, retrofit and how these can impact housing. Jess is returning to education to complete her MArch Architecture: Collaborative Practice and engage with projects that work toward understanding how architectural knowledge and resources can be made more accessible to local communities.
