About

I’m Olivia Alvarez, a multidisciplinary designer specializing in architectural, product, and spatial design with a Rhino3D focus. With 7+ years of professional experience, I craft precise, expressive visuals for furniture, interiors, and spatial concepts that are fabrication-ready.

I blend academic training from IAAC Barcelona and Emily Carr with hands-on projects for UN Studio and other studios, leading product and interior concepts, digital fabrication, and AI-assisted workflows. Currently I helm SOU/Shades of Us, a Vancouver luxury eyewear brand, while continuing to develop high-value prototypes and brand identities.
