Phoebe has moved onto pastures new, but this was her bio when she did work with us, and very good it is too: I’ve always been interested in architecture, especially skyscrapers and unusual buildings. I studied Economics, Politics and Law at Dublin City University and completed my masters in Globalisation and International Law. I completed my exams to become a solicitor, but soon realised that the legal sector was not for me and I wanted to work in a more creative industry. I moved to London from Ireland five years ago and have worked in the property management and development industries before joining Design Team. The Dancing House in Prague is probably my favourite building.
