About
Hi everyone and welcome to Architects Avenue, the online Avenue of all Architects.
The website name is a tribute to Lisbon, my hometown, where several street names of the Baixa district refer to old corporations or professions such as Rua dos Fanqueiros (fabric traders street), Rua dos Sapateiros (cobblers street), and so on. But I want to make it bigger and just a street isn’t big enough so, the Avenue was born.
On this Avenue, I am building a one-stop-shop destination for the architecture and interior design lovers community.
A LITTLE STORY ABOUT ME
I am a passionate architect who has developed an international career, working in several countries within multi-disciplinary design teams on a diverse range of projects. I truly believe that we can build a better world through architecture.
I am currently based in Sydney. Before moving to Australia, I had the opportunity of embodying the vibrant energy of Brazil where I worked for 2 years; living in a medieval city of Spain (Toledo); and had my own architectural practice in Portugal, my country that proudly has 2 Pritzker prize winners, Alvaro Siza and Eduardo Souto de Moura.
I do love architecture and feel fulfilled working in this field. I also love to research architectural and design trends, products, gadgets, software and a lot of other stuff that keeps me innovative, motivated and boosts my creativity. I usually found that there are bits and pieces of interesting architectural products everywhere so, why shouldn’t I put all the pieces together in one place? Let me be the Marie Kondo of architecture and organize all my collections to share with you on this platform.
WHAT CAN YOU FIND
Architects Avenue is a unique platform where you can find architectural resources, such as courses, software, books, art supplies, useful gadgets, and a selection of finely crafted products. You either can look for useful tools to empower your professional development or amazing and beautiful pieces of design to make your life more enjoyable.
My goal is to offer a selection of the best available tools out there to help my colleagues improving their skills and to facilitate their professional life. So please, have a look around, get inspired, learn, create and let your designs transform other people’s life.
Ana,
Founder of Architects Avenue
