Vishnupriya Vayyatt
I'm Vishnupriya Vayyatt, a driven architectural designer with a solid background in sustainable design, planning, and architecture. I recently completed my Master of Architectural Engineering from the University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand (2024), where I focused on integrated building systems, sustainable technologies, and performance-driven design. Prior to that, I earned a Master’s in Planning (Housing) from the College of Engineering Trivandrum in Kerala, India (2018), which deepened my understanding of urban development, housing strategies, and community-oriented planning. My architectural foundation began with a Bachelor of Architecture from McGan's Ooty School of Architecture, Tamil Nadu (2015).
Looking For a Mentor
As an international architect moving to New Zealand to work in the architecture industry, mentorship is very important for both my career and my education. I think that having a mentor is a great way to learn from people who have been there and done that and can help me understand the job market, workplace culture, and expectations in the New Zealand architectural field. It also helps me learn about the building codes, environmentally friendly practices, and design styles that are common in this area.
