Kehinde Adewumi ACIAT, LCC, NDEA
Building Physics & Sustainability Consultant
Working at the intersection of architecture, data-driven design, and regenerative environmental performance.
I am a Building Physicist, Energy Assessor, and Architectural Designer exploring how performance, data, and environmental intelligence can reshape the built environment. My work sits at the intersection of building physics, computational design, and regenerative sustainability an evolving practice grounded in curiosity, scientific rigour, and human-centred thinking.
Across my projects, I investigate how buildings behave, how they respond to climate pressures, and how data-driven strategies can guide better design decisions. My focus spans building performance modelling, Net Zero frameworks, whole-life carbon analysis, energy assessments, and climate-responsive design. I use simulation, technical evaluation, and workflow automation to explore questions of comfort, resilience, and efficiency at every scale.
I see my practice as a series of experiments tests, models, and iterative thinking that continually refine how we design for people and the planet. This website serves as an open ledger of that process: the computational tools I am building, the research I pursue, the prototypes I test, and the broader initiative I’m developing for the future of sustainable design.
Ultimately, my work is about enabling performance with purpose. Helping designers, engineers, and communities move towards low-carbon, high-resilience buildings through evidence-based insight, advanced modelling, and a systems approach to design.

Current Direction
I am developing tools, methods, and experimental frameworks that unify building physics, computational logic, environmental performance, and resilient design. This initiative is the foundation for a future venture dedicated to advancing the built environment through clarity, data, and purpose-driven innovation.
