An image of a modern concrete space.

Hi! I’m Zaria Nicole, a fourth-year architecture scholar at the University of Notre Dame, passionate about creating meaningful designs that bridge the past and present. My work draws inspiration from art philosophers such as Michelangelo and the timeless beauty of historical architecture, reimagined through a modern lens.

With strong rendering skills and a thoughtful, detail-oriented approach, I strive to craft spaces that are beautiful, functional, and welcoming. I believe great design lives at the intersection of architecture, art, and nature—where landscape, sculpture, and structure unite to tell a cohesive story.

I approach every project with a strong, smart, and brave mindset—driven by creativity, confidence, and purpose—to design environments that feel alive, intentional, and inspiring. Beyond the studio, I love on-site sketching and watercoloring, capturing the character and atmosphere of the places that inspire my work.
