A Bit About Me
I am an architectural designer with over six years of experience delivering high-precision technical drawings for residential, civic, and landscape developments. My approach blends international expertise with a deep commitment to sustainable, site-sensitive design.
With a Master’s in Architectural Design from Chulalongkorn University, I specialize in high-performance building strategies, including LEED-aligned kinetic façades and energy-efficient tropical architecture. My professional background includes leading large-scale civic projects for the Rajshahi City Corporation, where I successfully reduced on-site delays and ensured full regulatory compliance.
At Graphite, my mission is to provide clients with innovative, buildable solutions that prioritize environmental resilience and human comfort. Whether designing a boutique interior or a complex urban master plan, I leverage advanced BIM and AI tools to ensure every project is executed with maximum efficiency and aesthetic clarity.
