Dr Dimitris Venizelos

I am an architect, urban designer and geographer. My research interests are focused on cultural and political geography, urban design and development. Since 2017, I have been a research associate at the MesArch Lab of the University of Cyprus, where I contribute to the Lab's research activities on the architectural histories of tourism. Prior to this, I worked in research projects at Harvard University (2014–15) and at the National Technical University of Athens (2013–17).

I have taught courses on the History and Theory of Architecture at the University of Cyprus (2017), and on Urban Studies at the Faculty of Social Science & Public Policy, King's College London (2019–20). I currently contribute to the work of the Department of Architecture and Landscape at Kingston University, as a course leader of the MLA and MALU Courses.

I am a registered architect in the UK and the EU. As a practitioner I have worked on a range of architectural, urban design and planning projects, based in Belo Horizonte – Brazil, New York City – USA, Athens – Greece, and Cyprus.

I hold a Diploma (MA) of Architect Engineer (2007–13) from the National Technical University of Athens; a Master of Architecture in Urban design from Harvard University, where I studied as a Fulbright Fellow (2013–15); and a PhD in Geography from King's College London (2023), funded by the LAHP/AHRC and the Sylvia Ioannou Foundation.
