About 

Formulating problems and locating problems articulates interior design and architecture: it is both sensitive and sensible in its unique spatial, social and cultural context. It deals with details, manipulates lights and distinguishes itself between introspective and retrospective spaces. I enjoy challenges and can organize my time effectively to develop a concept into a drawing, and a project into a design.

Social interaction and behavioral psychology play a role in my designs. I believe in architectural symbiosis, creating a poetic balance between the architecture, interior users, and surrounding landscape. The ability to create community-driven and socially conscious spaces through architecture has guided my work over the years.

Third-year students Nora Gharib and Lucia Rodriguez created “Common Core : Private Edges” as a response to the call to seek “new paradigms and the reinvention [of] college learning spaces,” as they used “interstitial spaces to define areas that encourage interaction.”
