Originally from Italy, Antonella completed her architecture studies in 2015, graduating from Sapienza University of Rome. Her final year research project focused on the redevelopment of a derelict paper mill, built in circa 1850 on the outskirts of Rome, exploring not only the complex relationship between abandoned industrial sites and their surrounding urban fabric, but also the opportunity to transform these structures into vibrant community hubs.

Antonella joined RA Architects in 2016 and has since worked on a diverse range of projects. She has gained extensive experience in British Building Standards as well as a strong understanding of planning policies and Building Regulations, ensuring that projects are not only well-designed but also fully compliant with the latest construction standards.

Passionate about architecture and design, Antonella has developed a special interest in residential developments, including extensions, layout reconfigurations and bespoke new-build homes. She especially values the direct collaboration with clients, enjoying the process of understanding their needs and bringing their visions to life. With a keen eye for detail and a thoughtful approach to design, Antonella is dedicated to creating functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces that enhance the way people live. Her ability to translate client aspirations into thoughtfully designed architecture makes her a valuable asset to the team.

Outside of work, Antonella enjoys exploring cultural and historic landmarks of her adopted country, often visiting market towns and sites of historical interest across Wales and England.
