Alina Paias

I am a spatial designer, writer, curator, and researcher investigating the technologies and forms of knowledge involved in the production of architecture by engaging with a broad range of philosophies. I earned a Bachelor's degree in Architecture and Urbanism from the University of São Paulo and a Master's degree cum laude in Architecture from the Delft University of Technology. I've had years of experience as an architectural and cultural worker, having assisted the curation, design and production of exhibitions in Brazil, the Netherlands and the United States for institutions such as Lina Bo Bardi's Casa de Vidro/Glass House and the Nieuwe Instituut; most recently I worked at CLOUD in the design team responsible for the new entrance hall at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. I am one of the curators for the 2024 International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam (IABR) and a member of the Editorial Team for Footprint, the Delft Architecture Theory Journal.
