I am Nishanthan Ramasamy, an architect with 3 years of experience and a passion for computational design. After graduating with my undergraduate degree in 2020, I am now pursuing an MSc in Computational Methods in Architecture at Cardiff University. My drive for this master’s program comes from a desire to push the boundaries of architectural design through algorithmic design, digital fabrication, and emerging technologies. I specialize in generative design and parametric modeling, aiming to create innovative and practical architectural solutions.
Prior to my master’s program, I’ve gained valuable hands-on experience working as an architect. This real-world exposure informs his approach to computational design, ensuring that my digital explorations remain grounded in practical considerations and user needs. With a unique blend of technical expertise and creative vision, I’m driven to develop innovative design solutions that enhance the built environment and improve the human experience.
