− | Abel Pinheiro Cavalcante Maciel Jr. is an architect and researcher based in London, United Kingdom. He has extensive experience on a wide range of design typologies and scales, from product and interaction design, to large-scale urban complexes and masterplans. He also tutors architectural design at the Architectural Association (AA), the Bartlett School of Architecture, the Ecole Spéciale d'Architecture (ESA).

− | On the conclusion of his Master of Architecture with a focus on biomimetics, Abel was invited to ingress on the EngD in Virtual Environments at UCL, being awarded an EPSRC Scholarship. His research focus on the understanding of the social, economic and cognitive aspects of design thinking and how this value creation process informs the multidisciplinary and programmatic design modellingfrom early concept stages.

− | Using multidisciplinary research overarching Ethnography, Game theory and Human Computer Interaction, Abel has developed radically new models of this complex phenomenon, opening new avenues for further research and being awarded the Bartlett Doctorate Prize in 2014.
