About 

What influenced my decision to study architecture was my decision to travel abroad. I was given an opportunity to travel to Europe. Ever since then my longing for being involved in architecture and design initiated a strong drive within me. Architecture is the fuel that fed my hunger.

Throughout my educational career, I have always been hard-working and determined to succeed. I have gained so much by studying architecture and that only compounds my wish to further my studies. 

After graduation, I plan to immerse myself culturally by learning to design for people so that my experiences inform my style and my architectural interventions provide solutions in the most humanist way possible. My contribution back to society would always be met with the same enthusiasm and energy that goes into my studies.

I believe my proposed course of study is suitable and builds on my many strengths. My animating spirit and disciplined approach to learning make me particularly well suited to take advantage of any opportunity.

Thank you for your time.


Sincerely, 

Walter Lombard
