About
Architecture designed to live, work and feel.
I'm Viviana Gordillo, a third-year Bachelor of Architecture student at the University of Miami, minoring in Urban Design — originally from Mexico City, now building my future in Miami. Architecture, for me, isn't just about buildings. It's about creating spaces that genuinely make people's lives better, that bring communities together, and that respect the environment they're part of.
I'm especially drawn to sustainable and bioclimatic design, public space, and finding that sweet spot where architecture and nature actually work with each other instead of against it. What I love most about this field is that everything architects do has the power to shape how someone experiences a place — and there's nothing quite like turning an idea on paper into a space where life actually happens.
