Say hello to Ana-Maria!

Our Manchester studio is growing, and we’re delighted to welcome Ana-Maria Safta as our newest Senior Architect!

Please join us in giving Ana a huge welcome! We’re looking forward to collaborating across our fast-paced projects and seeing the fantastic work that lies ahead.

We asked Ana a few questions to get to know her better and this is what she said…

What trends do you feel are important in Architecture / Design?

“I believe the integration of AI and advanced digital tools is a significant current trend shaping the future of architecture and design. The use of automation platforms such as Dynamo and data-driven workflow tools like Newforma have the potential to improve efficiency, coordination, and design accuracy across all project stages. These technologies can streamline repetitive tasks, enhance collaboration, and allow architects to spend more time focusing on design quality and problem-solving.”

Favourite Holiday Destination?

“I spent three months travelling around the world on a 360-degree journey from Manchester through South America, Central America, and South-East Asia. My favourite country was Costa Rica, thanks to its extraordinary natural environment and scenery.”

Interesting fact about yourself?

“I am fluent in Romanian, Spanish, Italian, and French.”

We are delighted to have you on board, Ana!
