Malen was raised in a small Argentine village, deeply rooted in 'Pampa' culture. She studied at the University of Buenos Aires and after three years of practice in Argentina, she decided to look for new opportunities abroad. Her work covers mostly commercial, residential and curatorial programs. What she enjoys most is designing customized architecture, understanding that each client is unique.
Surrounded by artists since childhood and obsessed with vernacular spaces, her varied background and growing interests in photography, textiles, arts and nature provide her with a constantly expanding set of words to talk on what is essential to architecture - "the user, its movement, its feeling and senses; the space, its volume, its scale and textures."
Steven studied Architectural Technology for one year. After this, he studied Architecture at the Technological University Dublin. Before arriving in Vancouver in 2022 he worked as an architect in Dublin on a variety of one-off domestic projects from new builds to the conservation of historic structures.
He has a strong interest in the tectonics of how a building is constructed with a particular emphasis on detailing and its influences on the atmosphere of a space. He enjoys Brazilian jiu-jitsu, cycling, hiking, and exploring cities.
Sarah grew up in Ontario and studied architecture at the University of Waterloo before moving to Vancouver in 2022. During her time at Waterloo, she worked on several co-op placements across Canada and abroad on a diverse range of projects.
She has a particular interest in sustainable design which integrates itself into its context. An avid learner, she enjoys reading, traveling, being active, and exploring her surroundings.
Before studying architecture at the University of British Columbia, Sarah completed a Masters in Structural Engineering in her home town of Winnipeg, and worked as a structural designer. A transition into architecture allowed for a seamless blending of her technical training with her creative personal hobbies and interests, which focus on painting and small scale furniture projects.
Supported by her technical background, her work now focuses on context, client, and an appreciation of the everyday. An avid traveller, she is most comfortable lost with her backpack in a bustling city or small tropical town, appreciating what daily life looks and feels like across cultures and communities.

Outside of work, he takes interest in reading, travelling, fashion, and football.
