About 

        Hi, I am Shreya Nath, an architect and graduate of the Architectural Association School of Architecture, London. I have recently completed an MSc course in Sustainable Environmental Design at the Architectural Association,London which helped to initiate my learning on the integration of architectural and environmental design, which I consider fundamental in the current climatic and contextual scenario. The course has provided me an in depth understanding of climate responsive architecture and provided me with skills such as thermal modelling, lighting analysis, calculation and estimation of comfort conditions.

 

             After graduating from the Architectural Association, I joined L &S Architects, a small yet dynamic architectural practice based in Bangalore which focuses on environmental design. Here i was appointed as a project architect and environmental consultant and was in charge of the architectural and environmental design and site management of a passively cooled administration block which serves a 26 acre industrial campus.

             Since then I have independently undertaken a residential project and have been in charge of the architectural and interior design, production of construction drawings and overseeing the overall construction of the same. My main area of interest lies in sustainable residential design.
