Ghazal Kalantari
Architecture & Planning 2025
I am Ghazal, a passionate and motivated a BA (Hons) Architecture and Planning graduate, born and raised in the UAE with Iranian heritage. I am deeply committed to creating innovative and functional designs, with particular interests in minimalism, biophilic architecture, and the role of cultural influences in the built environment. I have a strong fascination with tall skyscrapers, which inspired my dissertation topic.
My academic journey has been enriched by hands-on experience through the RIBA Student Mentoring Programme and a professional placement in London, both of which provided me with valuable insights and practical skills. I am always excited to learn, eager to explore new perspectives, technologies, and design approaches to continually grow as a designer.
