Saachi Marwah Rana is an award-winning designer based in Delhi, India. Her artistic roots can be traced back to her childhood having being brought up around artistic parenthood, the mother is a National Awardee bronze sculptor and father who taught her about the interesting hand made finishes.

Nahom is very focued on Architecture, Urbanization and Curation.

Working to serve communities who can benefit the most from thoughtful and efficient research + design yet have the least access to it. Through my work, which includes small scale experimental projects and public space installations, I advocate for spatial justice in the pursuit of inclusive and resilient cities and communities.

My approach is holistically focusing on creative problem solving and critical thinking focusing on the client. Expertise from feasibility studies and public buildings in urban contexts, especially educational buildings. Interdisciplinarily experience with CLT wooden buildings and transformation projects. I am driven by the desire to create spaces that will have a long-term positive ands sustainable impact on a community.

My Architectural Design focus mainly tends towards two major areas;

1. Research and practice in computational and parametric design. I'm currently experimenting and research in the most advanced parametric design tools while aiming to integrate these tools with important architectural design aspects such as shape and topology optimization, environmental and structural analysis. 

2. Advanced Sustainable Design, for this reason I've been accredited as Pakistan's first LEED AP in Interior Design + Construction. My focus in this area is majorly on the latest construction technology and source material reduction in buildings.

Hospitality, sustainability, development 

Corporativo and Commercial Architecture; Sustainable Solutions

Lead studio-design lecturer and researcher specialized in (architectural Visualization and photography, architectural morphogenesis and form-finding ,  architectural tectonics and Aesthetics). Additionally,  there is a considerable interest in developing (architectural pedagogies, design-knowledge,  and critical thinking skill-sets) within the architectural education.

My focus is sustainability in the design-built environment and urban planning. I am currently the Planning Head for Mixed Use, Townships and Retail Developments of Filinvest, one of the elaidng real estate developers in the Philippines. One of my main role is to review, and approve design submissions by consultans that we hire for our projects. I have more than 17 years of experience as an architect and masterplanner/environmental planner.

For me, architecture has two ways of manifesting itself: Mimicking to go a little unnoticed, or contrasting with the environment, highlighting and saying that it exists with a new and functional design, it is for both reasons that I like architectural design, adding the appearance ecological design to coexist with the planet trying to avoid more pollution.
