Ph.D. Candidate
Miran is a Ph.D. candidate at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology (IIT), with a Master in Advanced Architecture from IAAC – Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia, and a Bachelor of Architecture from the Technion. Her research leverages additive manufacturing (3D printing) to design and fabricate customized architectural components using sustainable, bio-based materials, specifically wood waste and mycelium, transforming current practices in architecture and design. She was a scholar at the Norman Foster Foundation Sustainability Workshop supported by the Rolex Institute, where she engaged with topics such as environmental design and urban self-sufficiency. She presented at Responsive Cities 2025 in Barcelona and CAADRIA 2025 in Tokyo, showcasing robotic 3D printing workflows using locally sourced recycled wood and mycelium.
Her work explores circular design-to-fabrication processes to create structurally sound, self-supporting architectural components from waste materials. She is part of the D.DLab research group, where she contributes to cutting-edge material experiments and computational design strategies. Her work bridges academic research and real-world applications, with a focus on scalable, low-impact building methods.
