I am a seasoned Architect registered in Poland and Portugal with extensive international experience, spanning high-end residential, healthcare, hospitality and mixed-use projects across diverse regions. Demonstrating a proven track record in project management and design expertise, I excel in concept design, feasibility studies, and technical documentation. Throughout my career, I have successfully collaborated with clients, contractors, and suppliers, resulting in the delivery of exceptional architectural solutions on a global scale.
Proficient across a range of design software, my capabilities encompass 2D drafting (Rhino, AutoCAD, Vectorworks, Microstation), 3D modeling (SketchUp, Microstation 3D, Vectorworks 3D), and rendering (Artlantis, V-Ray). My creative talents extend to graphic design (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) and freehand sketches.
Fluent in English and my native Polish, with intermediate proficiency in Portuguese, I bring a diverse and adaptable skill set to the architectural field. My portfolio showcases a spectrum of noteworthy projects, spanning residential extensions, redevelopments, new builds, and urban planning initiatives in various countries and contexts.
Guided by a strong work ethic, innovative problem-solving, and a dedication to enhancing built environments, my architectural journey has traversed borders.
