Associate Jonathan Greig represented Hamilton Architects at Ulster University’s ARC326 Mini RIFF (Rapid Industry Feed-Forward) event at the Belfast campus earlier this week.
Jonathan joined fellow industry professionals to share practical advice with Architectural Technology and Management students developing their school design projects.
The event gave students the opportunity to discuss their drawings and technical proposals, receive constructive feedback and explore how their ideas could be delivered in practice.
The emphasis was on progressing the students’ projects towards RIBA Stage 3, with consideration given to construction, materials, detailing and coordination alongside their design concepts. The informal discussions at the event helped them identify priorities for their next stage of work.
Jonathan welcomed the opportunity to contribute, reflecting that the session “prompted plenty of engaging and constructive discussion around an impressive range of school design projects.”
Hamilton Architects enjoys a longstanding relationship with Ulster University. By sharing our time and experience through initiatives like Mini RIFF, we help students build confidence, connect their learning with practice and prepare for careers in the built environment.
