Hello, my name is Matthew Cienfuegos, and I aspire to be an architect who specializes in regenerative, community-oriented design. My goal is to design and develop architectural solutions that improve quality of life for all in the DMV area. This is my first academic portfolio that represents my first steps into the AEC industry.  It includes many informative case studies and projects that have enhanced my understanding of various elements of design. From both collaborative and independent projects, these selected works encompass both my current skillset and values as a LEED Green Associate to pursue my mission. I continue to develop and improve my skills and strategies to work with like minded individuals for the betterment of the world.
