Nicola Cortese is an architect, designer, writer and co-founder of Caliper Journal, currently based in New York City.


Her interest lies in architecture’s potential to function more broadly as an interdisciplinary tool that can facilitate research and produce shared knowledge. She explores this cross-disciplinary approach by questioning the intersection of spatial design practices and other means of communication such as publishing, writing, communications and curating. She holds a Bachelor of Design and Master of Architecture from RMIT University and is a registered practicing architect through the Architects Registration Board of Victoria (ARBV).
