Biography
Roya Rezaee is Perkins&Will Energy Lab co-director and member of Perkins&Will Process Lab. She has a PhD. in High Performance Building, with an expertise in design and broad areas of building technology including energy performance, daylight performance, water consumption, life cycle assessment, as well as parametric design, optimization, building information modelling (BIM), model-based system engineering, and risk assessment in performance prediction. Her main career at the firm focuses on the development of a novel integrated platform that enables designers to make an informed multi-disciplinary decision from the early stages of architectural design. She currently is involved in the development of the SPEED, which is a web-based parametric simulation platform for energy and daylighting analysis.
