About Me

I'm Katy Janginejad, a recent Master of Architecture graduate from Woodbury University, with a concentration in Design Computation. My thesis, Fluid Future: Design for a Rising World, focused on amphibious, self-sufficient homes designed to adapt to rising sea levels—blending environmental awareness with technical innovation. I approach architecture with the mindset that design is both a creative act and a responsibility to the future.

Originally from Tehran, I earned my Bachelor's degree in Architectural Engineering while working as a junior architect and launching my own clothing brand, Klee. That experience taught me how to balance precision and vision, skills I now bring into every design process. Since moving to Los Angeles, I’ve built a life around learning, growing, and contributing meaningfully to architecture projects that are both grounded and imaginative.

Beyond architecture, I’m an active person who finds clarity in movement. I play tennis, recently picked up golf, and unwind through long drives around the city. I enjoy writing, painting, playing piano, and watching classic and historical films. I follow Sustainable and Green architecture and design closely, always drawing inspiration from beautiful places and lifestyles around the world. I am also preparing to begin studying for the ARE licensure exams and am interested in pursuing LEED and WELL AP certifications in the near future. 

Currently based in the Hollywood Hills, I work as an Adjunct Faculty at Woodbury University and as an Architectural Associate with the City of Los Angeles Department of City Planning. I’m passionate about shaping sustainable and high-impact solutions for the built environment.
