Marina I.

I am an architectural designer with a background in mechanical and environmental engineering. Over the past six years, I’ve specialized in sustainable design, focusing on passive strategies, thermal comfort, and natural materials. My experience spans from high-performance building systems for hotels and housing to hands-on environmental research in tropical climates. I’ve conducted field studies on thermal delight in architecture and we received an Environmental Architecture Award in Japan. I aim to design climate-responsive spaces that promote well-being without relying on mechanical systems, integrating technical analysis with human-centered design.
