Felix Diaz stands at the intersection of architecture and the frontier of innovation. As the Director of Advanced Technology at Dekker Perich Sabatini, he has built a career around pioneering the use of emerging technologies. By merging novel technologies with traditional architectural processes, he is pushing the limits of building performance, sustainability, and the creative process. His approach champions data-driven design and simulations of Digital Twins to transform client visions into realities, making them active collaborators in creating spaces that exceed expectations, and drive revenue. Felix’s work in commercial real estate through NAIOP is bridging the divide between architects and developers, thereby emphasizing the need for dynamic, adaptive environments that respond to evolving market demands. His methodology reflects a future where technology and tradition coalesce to enhance the functionality and character of every project, thereby creating a world where every building is a revenue and energy generating asset, not a depreciating liability.
