William Mulvihill is an architect and architectural photographer whose work bridges design practice and visual research. A graduate of the Polytechnic University of Madrid (B.Arch, M.Arch, 2025), he pursued international studies at the Royal Danish Academy of Architecture in Copenhagen and Sungkyunkwan University in South Korea. He was awarded a study scholarship at Tongji University in Shanghai and also attended specialized courses at Bauhaus University Weimar and programs in traditional architecture organized by INTBAU Spain and the Fundación de Culturas Constructivas Tradicionales.

William is currently a member of MQ Architecture, where he works as a media lead and architectural designer, while maintaining an independent photography practice based between Madrid and New York. His photographic work has been published in Arquitectura Viva, Architectural Digest, Architectural Record, The Architect’s Newspaper, Forbes, and Detail, among others, and includes contributions to both editorial and academic publications, such as his research on acoustics and heritage preservation (La Música en el Monasterio de El Escorial – Sonido y Forma Arquitectónica, 2024).

He has collaborated with internationally renowned architects including Kengo Kuma, Kazuyo Sejima, Alvaro Siza, Lina Ghotmeh, Manuel Herz, and Alberto Campo Baeza, and has contributed to large-scale cultural initiatives such as the Osaka Expo 2025. He has held two solo exhibitions: Context, Form and Light (Tongji University, Shanghai, 2024) and Ways of Seeing Architecture (Waseda University, Tokyo, 2025), and his work has been featured in Made in Italy at the Casa dell’Architettura in Rome. William has also been invited as a lecturer at the Polytechnic University of Madrid and Waseda University, and as a guest critic at the University of Hong Kong.

Passionate about capturing architecture and spatial situations within a global context, William has traveled widely to document diverse built environments. His practice seeks beauty in both the vernacular and the unconventional, exploring how forms communicate and interact with people and their surroundings. Photography, for him, is both a tool for understanding the world and a lens through which to refine architectural design: two practices that inform and enrich one another in the way they conceive, narrate, and frame space.
