Architecture can be a gift to the planet.

**Hi, rebel! If you landed here, you’re in good company…**

I’m **Inés**, an **architecture graduate** who didn’t do the conventional thing. To me, architecture is more than buildings; it's a **catalyst for transformative change** — and I'm here to spark that potential. I use my voice to **instil self-awareness, inspire new possibilities + advocate for systems change.** With a passion for **human** **potential**, I am open to **impact-focused collaborations** + have a **book** in the making.

What I stand for: To make the outer change our planet longs for, we need to make the inner transformation first.

Getting out of the Way

You are the System

Are you an Activist or a Reactivist?

Creating systemic change + transformation is not a one-person kind of thing. Now, more than ever, we need to re-imagine together, synergize our gifts + do it how nature does it best: in collaboration. Just like the master builder that can’t + doesn’t need to wear all hats, we, too, can’t + don’t need to do it all alone. Check below to see if we’re a match:

Students, graduates + professionals in architecture, design + the creative industries are full of potential they don’t know they have. My role as a teacher + speaker is to engage, activate + inspire them to unlock this potential. Looking for a speech or a lecture series that will leave students/professionals/creatives inspired, empowered + transformed? ➝
The standard architecture curriculum prioritizes hard skills over soft skills that are vital for a rapidly changing world, and in doing so, could make students ‘not fit’ for the future. Within interactive self-awareness workshops, I guide participants to meet themselves more deeply, re-claim their gifts + develop agency. Looking for a facilitator to help transform school, work or an organization? ➝
Enough with complicated archi jargon. Looking for a voice that is fresh + stirs your deepest longings, desires + hopes? ➝ This is activism, but a different kind. I don’t tell your audience what they want to hear; I tell them what they don’t know they need to hear.
Architecture has unlimited expressions. Want to partner up to express your weird, bold ideas + campaigns? Great! Let’s lay the foundations together where we make sure to make the inner changes needed to create the outer! ➝

Manifesto:

We are not just architects. We are dreamers. Makers. Rebels. Catalysts. We break the rules and make our own. We respect the old and make it better. We don’t just ‘design buildings’ but think in wholes. Our degree is a foundation to redefine what’s possible. We know our worth and no longer settle. We reimagine a profession where we dignify and are dignified. A joint force that opens, not closes, to the challenges of our times. We love shaking things up by cross-pollinating disciplines. Nature? We don’t just design with it, we are it, and that changes everything. To us, space is more than an arrangement of walls on a block of land but a living organism that breathes, evolves and serves the inseparable web. It’s an opportunity to reconcile planet and people, body and mind. We understand that external change has to start inside. That when we embody what we hold dear and courageously embrace fear, we ignite ripples of transformation that echo far beyond this generation.
