How Angelina Approaches Architectural Design
At 14, I came across a book called “Vers un Architecture” – 1923, in which Le Corbusier defined architecture as a mathematical creation of the mind capable of arousing emotions simply by the relationships between shapes and surrounding elements. I think I understood then that our craft is both logical and intuitive, and to this day, I approach every project methodically by applying my knowledge guided by intuition and always attuned to my clients’ needs.

Favorite pastimes include riding my bike with my dog and my husband, baking, and  steaming HD operas from around the world.
