Local Work Experience

Phoebe is with us for work experience this week and the team have enjoyed introducing her to our projects and life at the practice.

Phoebe, a former student at Queen Elizabeth Sixth Form College in Darlington, is taking a year out following her A-levels ahead of studying architecture at university next year. She said: “I have had a great time at Harris Irwin and have learnt so much. Everyone here is really friendly and supportive, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to get a taste of what it is like to see how a design evolves from an initial concept and feasibility through to a finished build.”

Ian Holme, director, added: “Phoebe has taken the step into the world of architecture in her stride and in just a few days she has immersed herself in a design task, creating an impressive scheme that responds well to the brief.”
