Profile

Research expertise

In order to increase the life quality of people, my work centers on spatial justice and sustainability in and outside cities, computational urban design approaches to resilience and the integration of citizens’ participation in design and legislation.

I hone my expertise in the combination and the articulation of emerging issues-at-stakes that are central to society today: climate, the environment, new technology, democracy and education. In my work, I analyze massive, quantitative and qualitative data, and conduct prospective design and policy-making.

My research and my teaching thus contribute to questioning how data (digital, analogue, visual, historical, etc.) generate knowledge on cities, society and the environment.

Do not hesitate to contact me by email if you have any questions or would like to collaborate.
