Ajla Akamija, PhD, LEED AP BD+C, CDT is a faculty member in the Department of Architecture at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Her interdisciplinary research expertise includes performance-based design, building science, building enclosures, emerging building technologies, digital design, and innovations in architecture. Akamija has authored two previously published books, Integrating Innovation in Architecture: Design, Methods and Technology for Progressive Practice and Research (2016) and Sustainable Facades: Design Methods for High-Performance Building Envelopes (2013). She has contributed to many other books and numerous research publications. As one of the pioneers of practice-based architectural research, she established the Perkins and Will Building Technology Laboratory ("Tech Lab") in 2008, one of the first practice-driven research laboratories in the architectural profession.
