Dr Mehrnoush Latifi Khorasgani
Biography
Mehrnoush is Course Director of Architecture at Swinburne University of Technology.
She is a research practitioner with extensive local and international industry experience in the architecture field and completed her PhD at RMIT Spatial Information Architecture Laboratory in 2018. Her creative practice, research and teaching spans the fields of architecture, virtual and augmented reality, thermal comfort, microclimate design, and digital fabrication. Her research interests focus on the design with and for microclimates. She explores how the physical and tangible design language of geometry, colour and material are shaping dynamic, and hidden but effective, aspects of design. Mehrnoush has designed a series of smart surfaces using ceramic tiles with unique three-dimensional features, exhibited in various national and international exhibitions such as Embracing Innovation, Craft ACT 2015 and 2016 in Canberra and Dynamics of Air, RMIT Gallery 2018 in Melbourne.
