Tell us a little about your background in design:
With over a decade of experience, Neda’s passion for architecture began in childhood in
Vancouver, where early site visits with her father, Ziad, sparked her fascination with shapes, structures, and the built environment.
After earning her BA in Architecture from the American University of Sharjah and contributing to award-winning projects in Dubai, UAE, she co-founded Neda Ziad Architects with her father in 2021. As Co-Founder and Creative Director, Neda leads the studio in creating spaces that blend beauty, comfort, and functionality while pushing the creative boundaries of design.
How would you describe your personal design style?
My framework is contemporary architecture, a clean canvas shaped by light, proportion, and
landscape. Through the art of layering materials, textures, and light, I add soul and character, creating spaces that reflect the personality and lifestyle of those who inhabit them.
Where does your design inspiration come from?
My design inspiration comes from nature, the interplay of light and landscape, and the
textures and materials that bring spaces to life. I also draw from art, architecture, and cultural experiences from around the world while travelling, always creating environments that reflect each client’s personality and lifestyle.
