Suzanne Zahr

Suzanne Zahr is an architect, general contractor, creative strategist, and community builder whose work bridges design, culture, technology, and social impact. She holds a Master of Architecture from Columbia University and a Bachelor’s degree from George Washington University in Civil Engineering and Fine Arts, an interdisciplinary foundation that informs her approach to design, systems thinking, and storytelling. Her work spans architecture, construction, branding, cultural programming, and art curation, alongside the creation of spaces that center authentic cultural expression for underrepresented voices. She is passionate about cultivating community-centered environments, reflecting on the practice of home in relation to displacement and belonging, and mentoring emerging creatives and advocates. Her work is informed by spoken languages and the dialects of place, culture, and design, shaped through travel, cultural exchange, contemporary art, and food culture.
