Porota

I am an architect and researcher focused on the points of convergence between space, politics and society. 

My work spans a range of mediums and scales - from ambitious built projects to temporary installations and published research - all with a focus on the political and social role of architecture. 

My focus in Architecture since I got my PhD degree in 2017 has been on multiple fields. My main interest is environmental design and energy efficiency in buildings. This appears greatly in my researches and the courses I teach. I am interested in sustainability and how it can be achieved in both architecture and urban levels.
My focus in architecture as well is interior design. I teach interior design course for senior year where I highlight the interior space planning along with the lighting, furniture, materials, textures, design styles and flooring designs.

I also teach architecture design courses where I teach students the design principles, design considerations and site analysis. How to study the form, mass and void to present an integrated design project.

Provide opportunities for architects to be a force for positive change in the world.
