Athena Ly
As an architecture student focusing on people-centric design, I am dedicated to creating environments that foster harmony and comfort.
I rigorously study architectural foundations, including restoration techniques and architectural history, to bring this vision to fruition. I believe that a thorough understanding of fundamental design principles empowers innovative thinking and enables the creation of truly original concepts.
My current areas of interest involve historical preservation, restoration, workspace and office design, public spaces, and project management.
