Natasha’s passion for art, design, and construction drew her into the architecture and design profession. “Since I was a child, I’ve been always been fascinated with innovative design and its impact on human health,” she says. “I constantly ruminate about applying the principles of architecture and interior design into daily practice and often find myself solving design issues and details in my dreams.” As a licensed interior design professional practicing since 2004, her strengths lie in her capacity to understand, calculate, and design functional and beautiful spaces. When working with cross-functional project teams, Natasha brings her vivid imagination and fresh perspectives, alongside her engineering and builder sensibilities to the mix, which reaffirms her propensity for accuracy, function, and endurance in design, safety, and structure. She’s successfully cultivated her design and technical skillsets through various project typologies in commercial and institutional practice areas, and she believes in pushing design boundaries that epitomize diverse human experiences and social sensitivities.
