Sohanna Srinivasan

Sohanna is an architect and urban designer with over a decade of experience working on complex mixed-use projects for public sector clients. Passionate about using design as a tool for social equity, she is an expert in community-led design and puts engagement at the heart of every project. Before joining the Spring Cohort 2024, Sohanna was an Associate at Karakusevic Carson Architects, where she led Selby Urban Village - a community-led regeneration project for one of Haringey’s most deprived wards.

Sohanna is actively involved in teaching and mentoring and works closely with organisations such as Blueprint for All to promote more excellent representation within the industry. She has led BA design studios at Kingston University, which explore the relationship between post-colonial identity, the diasporic experience and the potential of architecture to create a sense of belonging.

She was shortlisted for the RIBA Rising Stars Award in 2021 and is a member of the Greenwich Design Review Panel.
