About Amin

Amin teaches the Fifth-Year Design Studio at NewSchool, where he leads students through the culminating phase of their architectural education and design synthesis. His studio focuses on integrating architectural ideas with complex contextual, social, and environmental factors, guiding students to develop projects that are not only visionary but deeply rooted in real-world conditions. 

In addition to studio teaching, Amin leads the school’s BIM and Visualization curriculum, offering courses from beginning to advanced levels in Revit, 3ds Max, and other industry-standard platforms. His goal is to empower students with the technical fluency and visual storytelling skills required in contemporary practice. 

Beyond academia, Amin is the founder of DDDVisual, Inc., a design and development firm based in San Diego that focuses on contemporary residential architecture and the permitting process. His work bridges concept and constructability, navigating the full spectrum from initial ideas to city approvals. 

Amin brings deep passion to both teaching and practice, believing that architecture is a lifelong journey of learning, making, and giving back. He is committed to shaping not only great designers, but also thoughtful citizens who understand the power of architecture to transform lives.
