Just promoting another one of the great designers in the PPF network. Taylor presented us with the winning design in our Nepal portable hand wash unit design competition in 2020.
It’s been a slow development but the unit has been built and trialled in Nepal’s remote regions. It has morphed a bit along the way in response to user feedback and the final version will be hitting the Nepali “paddock” (thanks PP..) soon.
Check out @tspring_design to see what else this takented person is creating.
Jake Kellow, key person in the PPF network and founding/ongoing member of the PP Architecture Scholarship selection panel, is pursuing his own Byera Hadley travelling scholarship study.
Tracing marketplaces along the Amber Road. Jake’s currently in the Czech Republic after spending time in Poland, with more to come. Fabulous project and study topic.

Great news. Victoria King, PP Architecture Scholar 2022, has been awarded a prestigious Byera Hadley Travelling Scholarship.
