Hi, I’m Maria, a first-year Master of Architecture student at MSA, originally from Romania. I completed my BA in the Continuity Atelier, where I developed a strong interest in heritage, regeneration, and creating architecture that responds to contemporary needs while celebrating the craft and character of the past. During my year out, I worked in a heritage-focused practice, gaining experience in conservation and listed buildings.
For our collaborative project at Victoria Hall in Glossop, I hope to contribute a sensitive, research-led approach that balances preservation with adaptability. By exploring flexible partitioning strategies and engaging closely with the local community, I aim to help shape a space that is both respectful of its historic identity and capable of evolving to support diverse and changing needs.
