Renan L. Prado Ferreira
Architect and Urbanist
Brazilian
13th December 1990
With extensive experience in the development of medium and large-scale projects, I specialize in Building Information Modeling (BIM) methodologies. My work includes multi-family housing projects, social community centers, museums, and airport infrastructure projects. Notably, I collaborated with MMBB on the Brazil Pavilion for Expo Dubai 2020, coordinating a BIM model with multidisciplinary teams across three continents. At Pessoa Arquitetos, I developed a BIM template and workflow tailored to the office’s needs, and recently, I contributed to public projects in Italy, focusing on interventions in built heritage.
I hold an Erasmus Mundus Master’s in Architecture, Landscape, and Archaeology, having studied in Brazil, the United Kingdom, Portugal, and Italy. My skills include architectural design, drafting, 3D modeling, and photogrammetry. I am proficient in Revit, AutoCAD, and Adobe Creative Cloud, and fluent in Portuguese and English, with intermediate proficiency in Italian.
I am excited to bring my expertise to future projects.
