Inessa Garder

Architecture shaped by context, culture and the way people live.

Inessa Garder is an architect working across architecture, interior spaces and visual design. Her professional experience spans practices in London, Barcelona, Moscow, Rome and Milan.

Her work brings together concept development, spatial planning, material thinking and detailed coordination. Experience ranges from prefabricated residences and hospitality interiors to public, cultural and mixed-use projects.

“I believe that good design always responds to the culture and at the same time influences and changes it, shaping the space of tomorrow.”
