Maya is a Lebanese architect and designer based in the Netherlands.
She developed her tireless work ethic at international offices like the Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) in Rotterdam and the Ateliers Christian de Portzamparc in Paris. She has cultivated her deep commitment to testing and detailing while working at Blankpage Architects in Beirut, always striving to derive design solution from thorough research and a deep understanding of the user’s needs, the technology available, the environmental impact of the project and the implementation process.
In 2013, Maya decided to work and design independently on projects from concept to completion, in the Netherlands and in the Middle East. This opened alternative grounds to work on different scales, to experiment with the process, to meticulously reframe and test briefs, and to design distinctive solutions for unique problems.
Maya holds a Masters of Science in Advanced Architecture Design from Columbia University in the City of New York and a Bachelor of Architecture from the American University of Beirut.
