Biography
Following an Architectural degree in DIT, Tom completed a Masters in sustainable design at the University of Auckland. With 10 yrs in practice working in sustainable design, he is now a Research fellow in TrinityHaus. Tom is currently involved in a variety of urban design and building design research projects, all with a user centred and sustainable design focus. The projects range from a Low Carbon Adaptable Home project to larger scale shared space design through a Universal Design approach or a sustainability indicator project for the Dublin region. In all cases the human as user is central to these projects with an emphasis on user centred, Universally Designed, occupant behaviour driven design solutions.
