Heleen Van der Reus

Architect. Consultant

Architecture at The Delft University of Technology

I studied Architecture at The Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, where I obtained my master's degree in 2016. When I was studying, my fascination with the social aspect in the design process grew and after my studies I continued to develop myself in this subject. As an architect I have worked on social and sustainable projects: such as social housing, sustainable renovations, residences for the elderly with dementia, community centers and public schools. It gives me a lot of energy to use my creativity to find good quality solutions for projects with limited resources.

In September 2018 I moved to Chile, for the love of travel and because I wanted to experience what it is like to live and work in a different context. So far it has been a great experience. Here in Chile I have worked at Sabbagh Arquitectos and Techo para Chile. Currently I work as a freelancer, collaborating on various projects, both as an architect and as an illustrator.
