Carlos joined Zaha Hadid Architects in 2019 as the Sustainability Team Lead, following almost five years at Foster + Partners, where he worked in the Specialist Modelling Group as an Environmental Design Analyst. His speciality in Computational Design and Environmental Simulation, combined with his expertise in Sustainable Architecture, allowed him to propose and found the ZHA In-house Sustainability Team to inform design decisions from the early stages in all ZHA 'Design Clusters. After four years at ZHA he became “Senior Associate and Head of Sustainability”, and together with his team, they coordinate sustainability assessment tasks with external consultancy firms to ensure all projects are delivered targeting reductions in environmental impact. The contribution of the Sustainability Team led by Carlos is helping ZHA target carbon reductions from Building Codes around the world and goals of International Sustainability Certifications like LEED, BREEAM and the Chinese Three Star Rating System.

His work with the ZHA Sustainability Team has been publicly shown in exhibitions in China and London, in different venues. Carlos received his bachelor’s in architecture at the University of Alicante, Spain, and his Master's in Advanced Architecture at the Institute of Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC). Among his professional qualifications that certify and validate his expertise in Sustainability in construction, he has earned the following credentials: LEED AP® Building Design + Construction, LEED® Green AssociateTM, Qualified UK Non-Domestic Energy Assessor, and Construction Life Cycle Specialist. Carlos has been also actively collaborating and mentoring students in some well-known institutions like Bartlett School of Architecture, Westminster University, IAAC Institute of Advanced Architecture of Catalonia, and the IED European Institute of Design at Barcelona.
