Snr Architect

Abby is leading on the design of the exhbition spacesinside the Victoria and Albert Museum’s new east London outpost and has been instrumental in developing projects such as Mare Street South and the V&A’s Fashioning Masculinities exhibition. Abby’s work champions social and spatial changes that are truly designed with, and are representative of, the people that enliven them. Before joining JA Projects, Abby worked at Harrison Stringfellow on a number of socially driven projects with third sector organisations, from inner city riding schools in disused theatres to multi-generational community gardens. She has delivered numerous installations, events and exhibitions for different organisations, which however temporary, evoke lasting impressions and she regularly delivers illustration commissions for arts and charitable organisations such as Turn2Us and Melodic Distraction.
