 Overview
Nica Rawhani-Sabet‘s interdisciplinary practice spans architecture, engineering and the arts to uncovers multi-layered narratives. With MArch Architecture and BEng(Hons) in Architecture and Environmental Engineering, her work examines landscape as archive, revealing connections between human dignity, environmental conservation, and indigenous knowledge systems, inviting audiences to reimagine their relationship with natural resources and built environments.

In October 2023, she was invited to create a sound piece for the Venice Biennale’s ‘Carnival: Woman, Life, Freedom!’, intended to highlight the voices of women struggling for basic liberties in Iran.   In the same year she joined the FAME (Female Architects of Minority Ethnic) Collective and also  co-founded the design collective SOUNDING: , who aim to elevate voices on the margins.

Professional architectural experience includes work withFundacion Organizmo (August 2023),Zaha Hadid Architects (2021-2023), McGregor Coxall (2018-2019). Furthermore, in 2019, Nica received the British Council Fellowship at the Venice Biennale. In the same year, she released my first EP, ‘Face-to-Face,’ which began my journey as a musician. In January 2025 she continued exploration of her sound practice at the Pocoapoco artistic residency.
