At the end of the month I will be leaving rpa vision. I have spent my first two years of professional practice within rpa, specialising in retail store design. I have learnt much from my time there but now wish to develop knowledge in new areas. I have joined the West London design agency Pope Wainwright; a young consultancy that uses strategic thinking to develop truly appropriate and considered ideas. I will start my work for PW in November.

Laurence Mitchell Gallery has opened in Yarmouth, Isle of Wight. It is a small independent art, photography and design shop that promotes the works of local artists. Working on a tight budget I produced design drawings and specifications to create a neutral, flexible space, with particular consideration to the interior lighting scheme.
