Amy Thomas is Assistant Professor in the Department of Architecture, Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment. She is an architectural historian with research centred on the relationship between financial processes and the built environment. Her current research explores the history of corporate architecture and workplaces, the role played by commercial architects and developers, and the intersection of gender and workplace design. Her forthcoming book with MIT Press focuses on the post-war development of the City of London (London’s financial centre). Amy has published work in journals including The Journal of Architecture, Grey Room and ARCH+, as well as a number of edited volumes.
In addition to her research and teaching, Amy is also an advocate for equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in architectural education and research, and has run various events at TU Delft on this theme. She served on the Management Team for the cross-faculty Delft Design for Values Institute 2018-2020, which led to the project 'Teaching Design for Values' (ongoing with Roberto Rocco and Maria Novas Ferradas), and is also an active member of the BauHow5 Alliance’s EDI group. In the latter she is currently working on a project to improve access to built environment education across Europe.
