A solid academic foundation that includes a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Architecture from USEK and a Graduate Diploma in Project Management from AUB, combined with over five years of professional experience in Building Information Modelling (BIM). My role as a BIM Coordinator at international firms has equipped me with in-depth expertise in digital design workflows, interdisciplinary coordination, and the implementation of BIM protocols and execution plans. I have led teams in utilizing advanced tools such as Revit, Navisworks, Dynamo, and BIM 360, ensuring high standards of quality, accuracy, and collaboration. This technical and managerial background, along with my exposure to both academic and professional environments, enables me to critically evaluate architectural education programs for their relevance, rigor, and alignment with global industry standards.

Yang Yang
I hold a Master of Science in Design in Advanced Architectural Design from the University of Pennsylvania. I am pursuing a PhD focused on carbon—and energy-reducing design, which has significantly shaped my artistic approach.My design focuses on how buildings can integrate seamlessly with their environment to enhance sustainability and energy efficiency. Morphology, geometry, and performance-based design are central to my work. I am particularly inspired by how a building's energy performance shapes its form and how the natural environment interacts with and negotiates the structure's shape. This dynamic relationship between architecture and its surroundings guides my approach as I strive to create designs that are both efficient and in harmony with nature. My design work has been featured in international magazines and books, and I have been invited to numerous conferences and exhibitions to share my ideas and present my work.

Lucciana, architecte diplômée d'État en 2019, possède également un HMONP de l'ENSA de Versailles et est membre de l’Ordre des ingénieurs et des architectes au Liban. Chez Studio Akkerhuis depuis Janvier 2021, elle a contribué à des projets majeurs comme La Tour TMVI la plus haute tour en Afrique, Mareterra projet de Renzo PIANO et Valode et Pistre à Monaco, le Campus de Google sur Paris et actuellement sur la Tour Triangle à la Porte de Versailles conçu par Herzog de Meuron. Lucciana est lauréate du 2e prix des Inspireli Awards en décembre 2020 pour son projet de fin d’étude PFE "Brain Drain", où elle cherche à résoudre la crise socio-économique au Liban en créant une plateforme pour les innovateurs et les créateurs ; ce projet créant un parcours métamorphique ayant pour but de concrétiser leur idée et enfin exposer ce produit final dans la tour qui tend vers l’infini qui accueillera les investisseurs et ainsi optimiser la chance des investissements locaux. Avant son arrivée en France en novembre 2020, elle a mené à bien un projet en son nom propre dans son village. Lucciana par son projet professionnel cherche à affirmer l’utilité sociale, environnemental de sa profession. « Suite à la crise sanitaire, l’architecture semble de plus en plus un métier de service, jouant un rôle primordial dans la société. L’architecture s’est avérée, le métier touchant la vie de tout être humain dans son habitat, dans son école, dans son métier et même au niveau de sa santé. Entre une convergence et une divergence, entre le tout et le rien, le plein et le vide, la transparence et l’opacité, entre une construction et une reconstruction, l’architecture offre un changement à travers des solutions créatives, et Lucciana vise à faire partie de ce changement.
