Louise Braverman

Louise Braverman is a New York City-based architect known for a design philosophy that aims to combine aesthetic design and social conscience. She is a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects (FAIA). Educated at the Yale School of Architecture, Braverman founded her own firm, Louise Braverman Architect, in 1991 which has designed a number of notable buildings around the world including the Village Health Works Staff Housing and Centro de Artes Nadir Afonso. Her firm was selected by the Walton Family Foundation in 2015 to be included in the inaugural Northwest Design Excellence Program, a pool of 36 designers who will contribute to the future of the urban landscape in Northwest Arkansas. She presented the work of her firm at the Venice Biennale of Architecture at international exhibits in 2012, 2014, and 2016, as well as at the United States Pavilion in 2014. She expressed how Venice is a source of her creative inspiration in her essay in Dream of Venice Architecture.

Some of Braverman's notable works include award-winning sustainable housing center for health workers in a rural village in Burundi, Africa and the Centro de Artes Nadir Afonso Art Museum in Boticas, Portugal dedicated to the work of abstract artist Nadir Afonso.

Other projects that have gained attention from the media include the CV Starr Hand Surgery Center in St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital in New York City, the Poets House, the Derfner Judaica Museum, and the Chelsea Court affordable housing.
