One Community welcomes Samantha Freitas to the Architecture Team as our newest member of Team Brazil!

Samantha Amarante Freitas - 3rd-year Architecture and Interior Design Student

3rd-year Architecture and Interior Design Student: Samantha enrolled in a five-year architecture and urban planning program, and is currently participating in a one-year exchange program at Savannah College of Art and Design. Samantha has worked as a volunteer since high school and also has a degree in Linguistics. She is looking to improve her skills not only in architecture but also in interior design because she thinks architecture should be thorough and designed harmoniously with interior design thinking. Samantha advocates that design be accessible to all, creating a more beautiful, healthy, and sustainable world. As a member of the One Community design team working on the 7 Sustainable Village Models, Samantha is excited to put into practice everything she believes about accessible design while learning with designers and collaborators from many areas.
