I am Asfhan Pathan, a graduate from Pennsylvania State University, M Arch program.
Being an architectural designer, my efforts are to make people's lives more convenient through design, thereby creating a world better and more convenient place. Making people experience an aura of space through my input. I am fond of exploring and deriving new sets of architectural design moves.
Based on my academic background (7 years) and professional learnings (Internships), I am competent to pursue full-time experience as an Architectural Designer (2023).
My goal is to secure a responsible career opportunity to utilize my training and contribute to the success of the company. In the future, I see myself as an architect and a designer targeting computational and sustainable aspects of architecture. Having a background of Indian heritage, I like to get inspiration from history and translate it to my design that relates to socio-culture aspect, ornamentation detail, lifestyle, and historical buildings. As an artist, I like creating abstracts, installations, sketching, and participating in design competitions.
