Dave Halpenny
Dave has always been a problem solver. His interests lie in in the technical side of design and in the fine details of a project. Dave started his degree studying construction but soon flipped to architecture technology to focus more on architectural detailing at the University of Southampton.
Through Dave’s travels, he found an architectural muse in Auroville, India, where the community is aspiring to universal peace through welcoming people of all walks of life, politics, and nationalities. In a city where the architecture reflects the diversity of its people, Auroville’s community is striving to address global issues through innovative and sustainable building methods. As a self-proclaimed problem solver, Dave was inspired by Auroville’s unique architectural approach, and the complex technical solutions.
