Kristel is a Lebanese-Venezuelan multidisciplinary designer who grew up in Beirut, Lebanon.

She holds a Master of Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania Weitzman School of design. Her design projects have been profoundly influenced by her diverse cultural background. Through each endeavor, she has embraced a sense of community and drawn inspiration from unconventional sources beyond traditional architecture and space.

With her interdisciplinary approach, she hopes to continue diving into the realms of design for social impact.  As a freelancer, she has expanded her horizons and worked on projects in Philadelphia, San Francisco, Beirut, Barcelona, Abu Dhabi, Doha, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, and Zhengzhou. She is a well-rounded designer with a passion for language, culture, and visual communication in all of its forms.

Collaboration is at the heart of Kristel's philosophy, cultivating networks of creative individuals across architecture, music, film, fashion, and photography.
