JEFFREY HENRIQUEZ ERICES
As an architecture graduate from New Zealand, I have nearly four years of hands on experience across residential, commercial, and healthcare projects. I’m passionate about designing spaces that are not only functional but also beautiful, sustainable, and innovative. With strong skills in CAD and 3D modeling, combined with a collaborative and problem solving mindset, I excel at finding creative, real world solutions to complex challenges. I’m eager to take on opportunities that allow me to grow, learn, and contribute, as I see each project as a chance to innovate and make a meaningful impact.

THESIS RESEARCH: SYRIA A PLACE BEYOND DISPLACEMENT
This research explores how architecture and preservation can respond to humanitarian crises caused by conflicts like those in Syria, where over 11 million people have been displaced, and their homes and cultural heritage devastated. My thesis investigates architecture as a tool for renewal, preserving cultural identity while adapting to new realities.

PROJECT OBJECTIVE
This thesis explores how architecture can help heal the wounds of war and bring renewal to post conflict environments. By questioning traditional rebuilding methods, the project aims to create adaptable spaces that serve new purposes while respecting historical contexts. The design symbolizes continuity amidst chaos, illustrating the relationship between old and new as part of a healing journey. I focused on creating flexible areas that encourage spontaneous activities and rituals, allowing life to unfold naturally. By blending preserved materials with innovative designs, I aimed to restore a sense of “normalcy,” where the scars of war coexist with forward thinking architecture.
Internally, the design reflects the emptiness left by conflict, capturing both loss and the possibility of reinvention. Externally, it moves away from conventional rebuilding approaches, embracing creative and adaptive solutions. My goal was to craft spaces that are functional and meaningful, highlighting their cultural importance.
This thesis demonstrates that architecture can shape unpredictable environments. The design isn’t limited to strict functions; instead, it features dynamic spaces such as courtyards and public squares that tell stories through movement and cultural context. It’s about creating places where everyday life can thrive, reflecting the spirit of a city recovering from conflict. I want to show that architecture can spark a dialogue between the past and the future, helping communities rebuild not just their physical spaces but also their emotional and cultural lives.
Ultimately, I argue that future generations should focus on recreating the spontaneity of life the rituals and interactions that give a city its character rather than merely imitating past structures. This approach allows architecture to serve as a vessel for memory and progress, linking the past with a hopeful future.
