Coming from both an interior design and sustainable buildings background, Diana sees the built environment through a completely different lens. From an interior design perspective, she loves the art of problem solving in a 3D manner.

Throughout her career as a designer it became evident that she had a passion for construction and detailing to make spaces come to life. There’s no corner of a space that hasn’t been thought through. She values craftsmanship and carefully thought out material selections. She believes that every element of a design should have a purpose.
