David Dávila

I’m a Peruvian architect and designer based in New York City, currently working at Fogarty Finger, where I focus on commercial interior architecture. My practice moves from conceptual thinking to production development, with a deep interest in natural materials and craft.
 

With over seven years of experience across architecture, art, and exhibition design, I have collaborated with designers, galleries, and museums around the world.

Originally from Lima, I moved to the U.S. in 2021—first to Boston, where I expanded my hands-on approach at the MIT Hobby Shop, and later to New York City to pursue my Master’s in Industrial and Product Design at Pratt Institute. There, I developed an interest in material exploration, working with wood, stone, pigment, and contemporary fabrication processes. Today, I enjoy working on large-scale architectural projects, drawing from my background in design, making, and material exploration.
