About Dorival Mota
Architect + 3D Architectural Visualiser

As an ARB + RIBA - registered architect at Stephen George and Partners, I bring over 14 years of experience in delivering major national infrastructure projects across logistics, aviation, and residential sectors. My expertise encompasses end-to-end project management, from conceptualization to construction, achieving stringent BREEAM Outstanding ratings through meticulous attention to detail.
Specializing in complex logistics-distribution centres, masterplanning, mix-use, aviation, and residential projects, I am committed to excellence and environmental consciousness. Proficient in software such as Revit, Enscape, AutoCAD, Lumion Pro, and others, I continually expand my skill set to enrich my professional capabilities.
I am a dedicated and creative professional, excelling in both independent and collaborative settings. Effective stakeholder communication enables me to lead multi-disciplinary teams and align design with pragmatic needs. My passion for crafting sustainable solutions and my proven track record in diverse domains make me a valuable asset at Stephen George and Partners.
