#Architetta LOUISE BRAVERMAN / USA
FOUNDER Louise Braverman Architect


BIO

Practicing locally and globally, Louise Braverman is an award-winning architect, whose highly focused firm is committed to building sustainable architecture of art + conscience. A graduate of the Yale School of Architecture, she established her practice, Louise Braverman Architect, to design architecture that is situated in both its time and place.



Designing aesthetically inventive projects, her studio searches for elemental solutions to complex architectural problems, using common means to achieve uncommon results. Recent projects that embrace diverse communities include Centro de Arts Nadir Afonso, an art museum in Boticas, Portugal that encourages public participation with art; the Derfner Judaica Museum, an art museum in Riverdale, New York that facilitates multi-generational engagement and Village Health Works Staff Housing, an off-the-grid dormitory in the post-genocide village of Kigutu, Burundi



Her work has won over 40 national and international design awards and been recognized by her peers, resulting in her early selection as a New York Architectural League’s Emerging Voice, elevation to fellowship in the American Institute of Architects and invitations to present the work of her firm at the 2018, 2016, 2014 and 2012 Venice Architecture Biennales, both at international exhibits and at the United States Pavilion.
