Sara Ayoub is an architect graduate from ENSA Paris-La Villette, working across architecture, scenography and material research, exploring how manual and mechanical gestures shape matter. Her explorations have led to collaborations with architectural practices, cultural institutions, and research laboratories, notably developing a 3D-printed earthen prototype in the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC), exhibited at the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale.
