Olivia is a registered Architect (ARB) and studied at the University of Sheffield for both her Undergraduate and Master’s on the dual Architecture and Landscape course, gaining accreditation in both design disciplines. Graduating with Distinction, her final thesis project concerning urban rewilding was nominated by the University for an RIBA Silver Medal and she received the Kenneth H Murta Prize for exceptional design performance. Personal research interests have led her to focus on the reclamation and remediation of vacant spaces and challenging perceptions of landscape aesthetics. Before joining Tom Stuart-Smith, Olivia worked as an Architect at Hollaway Studio in London.
