Hi, I’m Laura! Lets see this portfolio together...
About me Hi! I am an architect graduated from the Polytechnic of Valencia (UPV, September 2018). I carried out my studies while working, and with one year of international Erasmus experience in Politecnico di Milano (PoliMi, 2017/18), where I attended some international workshops and joined wide array of designing events such us the Biennale, and Milano’s Design Week. I love the connection between people and architecture. This is a social characteristic of architecture, which, as a highly empathetic person, I always try to promote in designing. I excel at designing spaces where customers can connect with their surroundings. Working at Torrecid Group last year gave me the opportunity to grow further my skills as an architect and link it with technical sales consultant, excelling at supporting and advicing customers, finding the best fitting design solutions, understanding their needs and requirements. Before working for Torrecid, I worked in two architecture firms in Valencia, where I started facing urban and housing projects, regulations, and I could experience real team work... and became really passionate about architecture. :) Currently, I’m a freelance architect. I collaborate with architecture and interior design studios to improve their residential designs, while developing my own personal brand

Social Skills Well, I am creative, resourceful, fast-learner and empathetic. I love connecting with people, and showing these connections on my designs. I am also passionate about organizing, which helps me a lot with deadlines, or to structure teamwork. And I must admit that I can’t stand a PS file without its layers named and well organized (yes, at my place I’m a bit like Monica from Friends)... Besides, I love when I am passionate about something! And the truth is, I am passionate about many things: dancing salsa, Mondrian, eating sushi, Ken Follet, and constant learning. That’s why I love team work, because your’re always listening to new ideas (even thought I have a competitive spirit).

URBAN CHALLENGES
HOW ?
- Small squares without use and connexions. - Lack of social and urban cohesion - Surroundings: educational services, elderly population and intercultural habitants.
Create an urban space in the ground floor and within the buildings: linking the surrounding urban voids and a new public program in conversation with the academic program inherent in the faculty.
