About me

I’m Donna Collins, an Architect and Designer based in Bangor Co. Down.

At Dot Projects we carry out all stages of architectural design service, from feasibility, through Planning and Building Control to construction and beyond. We do residential and commercial work at a wide range of scales, from small extensions to £1 million + designs.

I believe the spaces we inhabit have a huge impact on how we experience the world and I aim to create joyful spaces that enhance your life. Each project I work on is completely unique and personal to the individual client and always elevated through customisation and an eye for detail.

Ceramics

Designing and making go hand in hand. Here at Dot Projects our making process informs our design practice and vice versa. Working with human scale objects allows for creative freedom to explore scale and form, developing a deeper understanding of spatial relationships and scale, which directly translates into my architectural designs.

Creativity is fostered through hands-on engagement with different materials, deepening material understanding and enhanced ability to make informed material choices. In turn our architectural practice feeds into this play to create form led, functional, and experimental designs.
