Our project for Ampersand Energy has been awarded at the Bienal Iberoamericana de Arquitectura y Urbanismo in the category of "other coordinates". The project was developed in collaboration with COMETA ARQUITECTOS SLP and aimed to provide a modular, scalable, recyclable and low-embodied carbon battery swap station network for the Rwandan-based e-mobility company. There are several stations in Kigali (Rwanda) and in Nairobi (Kenya) already and more to come! Give us a shout if you spot one of them on your daily commutes abroad: an electric-powered moto taxi in either of the capital cities! https://lnkd.in/gywBbrxr

Our work has been included in the "100 Women: Architects in Practice" published earlier this year by RIBA Publishing. The volume acknowledges and celebrates women architects and their contributions to the built environment. The book is a rich, diverse, and fascinating survey showcasing the work and stories of 100 practitioners across six continents and 79 countries. Thank you to the authors Dr. Harriet Harriss, Naomi House, Monika Parrinder and Tom Ravenscroft, for all the effort you have put into this book as well as Alison Brooks for the foreword. Thank you to the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) for publishing this volume and bringing together the work of female architects from across the globe. While there are many more relevant practitioners out there, I am glad to see that diverse voices and approaches to architecture are represented in many different conditions and contexts. So happy to see my work alongside colleagues and inspiring voices in the field such as Rahel Shawl, Tosin Oshinowo, Fernanda Canales, Tatiana Bilbao ESTUDIO, Ilze Wolff, Patti Anahory, Gabriela Etchegaray, Deanna Van Buren, Suhailey Farzana, Julia Gamolina, Farshid Moussavi Architecture, Anna puigjaner, Anna Heringer and many others. The book is now widely available, through RIBA and other platforms.
