Isha Dinesh Sharma is an architectural designer specializing in regenerative design, computational sustainability, and urban resilience. With project experience across Canada, Mexico, India, Africa and Fiji, she brings a systems-thinking approach to sustainable architecture, planning, and equitable infrastructure.

As a Junior Designer at SvN Architects + Planners, Isha conducted advanced building Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) and co-authored the Upfront Carbon Materials Guide. Her work supported housing, transit-oriented communities, and cultural redevelopment projects, focusing on material health and decarbonization.

Isha's commitment to sustainable building extends to technical prototyping, having worked on an anti-seismic compressed earth-brick housing system with ecological water treatment that is now under construction. Her research experience includes mapping petrochemical legacies in Tkaronto and post-pandemic urban typologies presented at Tufts University.

A Lester B. Pearson Scholar and Laidlaw Research Fellow, Isha holds a Bachelor's in Architectural Technology with a minor in Energy and Environmental Science from the University of Toronto. Her recent thesis, Biomass to Biogenic Buildings, charts pathways to decarbonizing Toronto's housing through carbon sequestering design. As an active member of the Toronto BioBuild Collective, Isha hopes to advance the use and understanding of Biomaterials in the built environment through research, testing, and community engagement.
