As an architect and honorary professor of the UNESCO Chair of Earthen Architecture, Building Cultures, and Sustainable Development she is focusing on the use of natural building materials. Her diploma work, the METI School in Rudrapur got realized in 2005 and won the Aga Khan Award for Architecture in 2007. Over the years, Anna has realized further projects in Asia, Africa, and Europe. Together with Martin Rauch she has developed the method of Clay Storming that she teaches at various universities, including ETH Zurich, UP Madrid, TU Munich. She received numerous honors: the Global Award for Sustainable Architecture, the AR Emerging Architecture Awards in 2006 and 2008, the Loeb Fellowship at Harvard\u2019s GSD and a RIBA International Fellowship. Her work was widely published and exhibited in the MoMA New York, the V&amp;A Museum in London and at the Venice Biennale among other places. In 2013 with Andres Lepik and Hubert Klumpner she initiated the Laufenmanifesto where practitioners and academics from around the world contributed to define guidelines for a humane design culture.<\/p>\n<p><em>Architecture is a tool to improve lives. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The vision behind, and motivation for my work is to explore and use architecture as a medium to strengthen cultural and individual confidence, to support local economies and to foster the ecological balance. Joyful living is a creative and active process and I am deeply interested in the sustainable development of our society and our built environment. For me, sustainability is a synonym for beauty: a building that is harmonious in its design, structure, technique and use of materials, as well as with the location, the environment, the user, the socio-cultural context. This, for me, is what defines its sustainable and aesthetic value.<br \/> <\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243;][\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#e8e8e8&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\">Lina Ghotmeh<\/h1>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/cyprusconferences.org\/tfyd2019\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Lina-Ghotmeh.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243; max_width=&#8221;84%&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;3_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.20.1&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">Lina Ghotmeh<\/span>, Architect, Paris, France<\/p>\n<p>Lina Ghotmeh &#8211; Architecture is a critically acclaimed, international firm of architects, designers, and researchers based in Paris.
