         Carlos Navarro is an architectural designer, new media artist, and creative technologist, originally from Lima, Peru, and based in Los Angeles. His work integrates generative AI, procedural design, and CG animation to create architectural experiences that bridge the digital and built environments. By designing creative feedback loops between AI and users, Navarro fosters originality and user agency, challenging the biases inherent in generative AI. His practice reimagines architectural ornament and semiology, harnessing computational design to unlock new possibilities in storytelling and representation. He crafts multi-dimensional architectural artifacts and immersive environments, redefining architectural expression through digital artwork and worldbuilding.


With over a decade of architectural experience, Navarro has worked with leading firms in Los Angeles and Lima, including OFFICEUNTITLED, Steinberg Hart, P-A-T-T-E-R-N-S, and MASUNOSTUDIO. He holds a Master of Design Research from SCI-Arc and a Diploma of Architect from the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru. Currently, he serves as a Project Designer at OFFICEUNTITLED specializing in computationally driven, media-activated public space. His projects have been featured on platforms like ArchDaily, Frame, Architect Magazine, and The Architect’s Newspaper, showcasing this forward-thinking approach to architecture.

Navarro is deeply involved in academia and new media art. He has taught computational design at Universidad de Los Andes in Bogota and shared his expertise through lectures, workshops, and reviews at institutions like Harvard GSD, DesignMorphine, SCI-Arc, Woodbury University, and A+D Museum. He has presented research on AI-aided architecture at leading conferences like ACADIA, CAADRIA, DigitalFUTURES, and SHARE Architects. Concurrently, his new media artwork has been exhibited internationally at venues such as Sphere in Las Vegas, iidrr Gallery in New York, Gallery 90220 in Los Angeles, K11 Musea in Tianjin, China, and Pavillon Noir in Paris.
