Holding both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Architecture & Interior Design with the highest distinction (110L), I bring a strong academic foundation combined with over three years of experience made also in international environmente (SANAA), specializied in residential building and public spaces. My design approach is deeply rooted in European architectural principles, balancing timeless aesthetics with contemporary solutions. Excited to bring a fresh perspective and international experience to the Swiss architectural landscape.
