By assembling and directing cross-functional teams of experts, I bridge creativity and strategy to help individuals and businesses transform their vision into impactful, forward-thinking experiences. Blending aesthetics with functionality, I strive to help craft work that not only stands out—but also inspires connection, growth, and lasting value."
Background
Education & Practice
Sophia Goehner is a multidisciplinary creative working at the intersection of architecture, marketing, media, UI/UX design, and entrepreneurship. A Cornell University graduate with a five-year professional degree in Architecture, she integrates her background in design, new media, fine art, and business to explore and enhance how people engage with contemporary social and cultural expression in today’s digital landscape.
Her parallel experience in marketing, sales, and project proposal writing has sparked a deep interest in how digital and physical products are conceptualized, marketed, packaged, and presented to both stakeholders and consumers. This intersection of creativity, strategy, and communication informs her approach to design as both a visual and experiential language.
Today, Sophia’s work focuses on immersive, social, and digital technologies that connect people through cultural dialogue, commerce and personal creative self-expression, bridging the gap between physical, digital and virtual environments to cultivate shared meaning and engagement.
Entrepreneurship
Sophia is the founder of CreateAid.com, CreativeMediaEnterprises.com, and VirtualDesignSpaces.com. Create Aid+ is a research- and socially-driven platform exploring how design and storytelling can support global initiatives. Creative Media Enterprises is a client-focused venture delivering solutions in branding, digital media, and architectural visualization. Virtual Design Spaces is a web-based forum rooted in architectural design that serves as an investigatory laboratory bridging virtual reality and architecture, enabling discussion and exploration of spatiality, human perception, VR theory, and architectural space-making. Together, these ventures balance social innovation, immersive experimentation, and market-driven practice.
Global Perspective
Born into a bi-cultural circumstance and a citizen of Germany and the U.S., Sophia developed a global outlook through extensive travel across Europe, North America, North Africa, and Mexico. These experiences inform her sensitivity to place and her commitment to globally engaged, socially conscious design.
Objectives
Creative Integration
Sophia integrates design, technology, marketing and custom content into projects that cross disciplinary boundaries. Using digital platforms and social media, she extends the reach of her work, applying creativity to fields ranging from urban agriculture to branding and identity.
Research Motivation
She believes cities must reconcile technological progress with ecological balance. Her work focuses on regenerative urbanism, urban farming, and the integration of ecological systems into the built environment. She is also interested in super-prompt based design, parametric modeling and immersive visualization—defined as the use of advanced digital environments, such as virtual and augmented reality and spatial simulations, to enable multi-sensory engagement with complex design scenarios.
Approach
Her approach builds on theoretical frameworks she explores on ResearchGate, including topics in immersive realities, digital representation, and urabn technological systems, and is further articulated in her LinkedIn article, “From Mimesis to Virtualization” (link), which examines the translation of philosophical concepts into immersive digital experiences for research and practice.
