Architectural Practice Director & University Design Tutor (PhD) — Studio Support, Portfolio Reviews & Thesis Guidance (Glasgow & Online) for students & professionals at all levels

Dr. Piotr is an outstanding tutor with a genuine talent for bringing out the very best in his students.

His passion for architecture is evident in every interaction, inspiring us not only to refine and build upon our strengths, but also to step outside our comfort zones. Under his guidance, my colleagues and I were encouraged to experiment boldly, explore fresh perspectives, and approach our projects with creativity and curiosity. His dedication, insight, and ability to challenge us in constructive ways made a lasting impact on both our skills and our confidence as aspiring architects.

I was incredibly fortunate to have Piotr as a tutor and mentor during my final year of architecture at the University of Strathclyde. When starting the masters, many students, including me, found it difficult to adjust to the more conceptual nature of the project, but Piotr was helpful with bridging this gap from real world to thinking more unconventionally. He is very well read, and always amazed me with a myriad of references; in theory, art, architecture or conceptual projects. This makes him a great tutor for a wide range of projects, which I observed amongst our diverse group of thesis topics.

Above all, I feel that Piotr is encouraging, honest and, most importantly, passionate about the field of architecture and other related disciplines. It was very beneficial for me to engage in discourse about various topics that I previously would not have considered very "architectural" by nature. With his help over the last year, I have come to realise that my future as an architect does not have to follow one conventional route, but could encompass many different and creatively stimulating areas of study and work.

I was tutored by Piotr for my Masters year at university, and I found his guidance incredibly helpful. He consistently offered thoughtful insights that really deepened my understanding, and explored topics from a perspective I hadn't considered. His explanations were clear and thorough and it felt easy to ask questions to clarify things further.
As well as this, Piotr was incredibly supportive and encouraging throughout my work, helping me through key decisions whilst truly understanding my opinions and position. He is friendly, approachable and easy to talk to - I enjoyed our conversations both during and outwith the tutorials.
With Piotr's support, I had significantly more confidence in my work and had a stronger outcome of my final project. I would wholeheartedly recommend him as a tutor.

I had the privilege of being one of Piotr’s students during my architecture studies, and his classes have had a lasting influence on both my thinking and creative process.
What sets Piotr apart is the time and attention he gives to truly understanding each student—not just their work, but their passions, motivations, and ways of seeing the world. He doesn’t impose a particular style or ideology; instead, through thought-provoking conversations and precise guidance, he helps you develop your own voice and methodology.
His classes are never just about delivering content—they’re about engaging in a shared exploration. Piotr challenges assumptions, encourages deep questioning, and creates a space where ideas can evolve meaningfully.
With him, you don’t just learn about architecture. You delve into philosophy, history, sociology—and begin to see how all these disciplines are deeply interconnected. His teaching opens up new intellectual pathways, making each conversation not just educational, but transformative.
I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a tutor who is intellectually rigorous, deeply respectful of individual expression, and genuinely invested in their growth.

I had the amazing opportunity to work with Piotr as my design tutor, and it had a lasting impact not only on my work but also on my personal development.

Piotr is incredibly knowledgeable and always brings a unique perspective to his teaching. He often shares unexpected resources and references that ignite creativity and inspire critical thinking. His guidance helped me step far outside my comfort zone and encouraged me to challenge my own limits. As a result, I now approach design with greater confidence and am not afraid to make bold, radical decisions.

What I especially value is that Piotr doesn’t just teach design, but he fosters a mindset of curiosity and growth. He helped me see opportunity in every challenge, and thanks to him, my reading list is still growing with exciting new material.

Piotr is a truly trustworthy and inspiring tutor. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to deepen their design practice and develop their creative thinking.
