Daria Petrova (born in 1988 in Neryungri, Yakutia Republic) is a Master of Science in Architectural Studies graduated from University of Florida in 2013.
After graduating as a Specialist in Architecture from Yaroslavl State Technical University in 2011 she participated in the Fulbright Program in Russia 2012/2013, became finalist and received a grant to study in the United States within Master of Science in Architectural Studies Program at CityLab - Orlando (University of Florida) with special focus on Adaptive Reuse of Industrial Heritage. While studying in the States she was a participant of Fulbright Enrichment Seminar in Phoenix 2013 with focus on Climate Change and Environmental Sustainability collaborating with other Fulbrighters in the development of creative strategies to cope with environmental problems. In the spring 2013 she was invited to HuntonBrady Architects as an intern and while assisting the office with development of educational facilities in Orlando she also conducted an independent study on comparison of architect-client relationship in the US and Russia. At the last semester she had an opportunity to work as a Graduate Assistant at CityLab - Orlando assisting at teaching Drawing Towards Architecture Class.
After finishing her program in the US she moved to Nicaragua in 2014, where she’s been working as an Architectural Designer and Project Manager at JSR Architects that specializes
MS IN ARCHITECTURAL STUDIES Architectural Designer/ Project Manager at JSR Architects arquitectadaria@gmail.com +505 7822 6319 Managua, Nicaragua
in private residencies and appartment buildings. Among the projects that she's worked on is Amador Residency that recieved II place at CEMEX award in Nicaragua. In the spring 2016 she had an opportunity to contribute to Nicaraguan academa giving workshops on Architectural Sketch as Communicative Tool, participating in training sessions on teaching architecture and was invited to work as an instructor for Creativity and Composition Workshop at American University (UAM).
The last two and a half years of living and working in a Third World country had a great influence on her professional development as she witnessed the struggle due to high consumption of remained natural resources and learned of the great importance of minimizing the impact of every project on the environment. At the end of 2016 she is returning to Russia to look for new oportunities to grow as a professional. She strongly believes that Strelka University is a necessary step for her in order to transition back to designing within urban environment as well as a great chance to share her experience and knowledge that she's obtained over the last 4 years with Russian Academia.

The volumetric concept of the project is two overlapping long rectangular volumes. During the design developmentvmultiple options on the support of the second volume were studied.
This is a project of vacational house in San Juan del Sur resort town in Nicaragua of 530 m2 of total covered area. The main challenges of the projects were an existing sharp natural slope of the property and it's narrowness. As a result a two overlaping volumes were proposed, where the main level is an opened living/dining/kitchen space and the second level are bedrooms. In order to compensate for complecated design of the house, local natural materials were used as much as possible and the spaces were kept to their comfortable minimum.

MS IN ARCHITECTURAL STUDIES THESIS
ADAPTIVE REUSE OF ZIL FACTORY THE POTENTIAL OF INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE TO ATTRACT ARISING RUSSIAN CREATIVE CLASS/UF/2013 This thesis investigates the opportunities to attract the Emerging Russian Creative Class* using the potential of revitalized industrial sites in Russia. The thesis addresses two severe consequences of Russia’s post-industrial transition which have been happening over the last 50 years First, every year the number of abandoned industrial buildings in the country increases and creates voids in the urban structure and disconnects parts of the city. Second, there is an acute problem of a mass emigration of members of the Emerging Russian Creative Class which occurs because Russian living

conditions cannot satisfy their needs. This is a significant threat for the future economic development of the country because the new economy is increasingly dependent on members of the Creative Class. Thus, this thesis proposes to revitalize industrial sites so they attract the Emerging Creative Class, and reduce emigration. This thesis focuses on Moscow because it has a high population density, a significant concentration of abandoned industrial sites, and the highest concentration of the Emerging Creative Class in the country. The strategy for revitalization of an industrial site was developed through investigation of the Creative Class values, analysis of Moscow’s historical development ZIL Factory/The Site of the Project
Existing Buildings Analisis
and analysis of case studies from Europe. The strategy proposes to focus on education and science as the core elements for revitalizing industrial sites. In order to test the proposed strategy, an urban design proposal for the revitalization of the ZIL factory industrial zone was developed, and an evaluation of the research results was accomplished based on precedent and critical reviews. Directions for future investigation were suggested.
This map illustrate spatial distribution of Industrial Herritage and Educational Institutions (main centers of concentration of arising Russian Creative Class) in Moscow and demonstrate there geographical proximity due to the initial historical location of educational institutions next to the developing industries. *As Richard Florida stated in his book The Rise of the Creative Class, Revisited (2012) creativity is the driving force for contemporary economic development and has spawned the formation of new social class, which he calls the Creative Class. Florida defines the Creative Class as “people in science and engineering, architecture and design, arts, music, and entertainment whose economic function is to create new ideas, new technology, and new creative content” (The Rise, ch. 1).

Concept Diagram
After an analysis of each of the potential sites the site of the project was chosen to be the site of ZIL factory due to its physical characteristics, importance of its location in the city, presence of valuable factors for attracting the Creative Class and the fact that among all the proposed reconstruction projects of industrial zones this factory is planned to be redeveloped first. After urban analisis were conducted and the context and content of the site were analyzed, an urban planning concept Master Plan were developed as a solution to the future development of the site in a way that would attract members of Russian Creative Class. The key approach to the development of a site of this scale is incrementalism. The general strategy for revitalization is to redevelop the site with a focus on education, exploration, observation, and research. The site is to become a place where knowledge will be generated and spread, shared and discussed, using the place for education. The site will attract various groups of people: students, researchers, scientists, specialists, entrepreneurs, businessman, artists, performers, younger generation and elderly, citizens of the city and tourists, international guests and visitors from other parts of the country. The main idea is to provide all these groups places where they can share the results of their work, their activities, their investigations, observations and knowledge. Unlimited interdisciplinary exchange and collaboration is the key factor for attracting the Creative Class to the site. The environment should be flexible and transformable over time so that future residents can adjust it to their needs, and rearrange it through their creativity. In this way the site will develop incrementally through the years. The proposal places incentives and brings activities to the site which will start to transform it.

RESEARCH PROJECTS AND COMPETITIONS
DESIGN A BEAUTIFUL HOUSE INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION/2015 Design a Beautiful House competition (DaBH) is an international architecture contest held in June - November 2015. The participants was offered a 90 He former golf club site in London and were to replace the existing building with a new residential house. The house were to be inhabitant by a family of 7 members each of which had particular preferences and requests. The main challenge was to find a definition of a Beautiful House and express it in architecture form while accomodating the needs of the future habitants.

The incentive was to create a house for a dog that would be a self-sufficient structure inteslf but go with the design of the main house. As this was designed for tropical climate cross ventilation, hot air escape and protection from the rain and mud were important parameters of the design. The desing was developed based on the short research on dog behavior and movement patterns (like the fact that dogs have a tendency to move counterclockwise before they lie down, etc). This lead to the particular plan layout while tand stainless steel. BIRD EYE PESRPECTIVE

The desing was developed based on the short research on dog behavior and movement patterns (like the fact that dogs have a tendency to move counterclockwise before they lie down, etc). This lead to the particular plan layout while the hot air escape parameter dictated the dome-like shape. The same time the target of the design was to achieve this shape by using minimum types of panels in order to reduce the production cost and make it simple to assemble and dissasamble it. The materials used are wood and stainless steel.
