Atelier Ten squad strengthened

Recent promotions in the London office have fortified our team ahead of the World Cup this summer.

Gita Maruthayanar to Principal Mechanical Engineer

Gita joined Atelier Ten in 2014 after several years of experience in the UK, New Zealand and Australia. Being part of the building services team, Gita enjoys the challenges of solving technical issues with peers and interacting with other members of the delivery team. She has worked on projects large and small at Atelier Ten including the Royal Academy of Music, Google’s Headquarters in London, and Bee’ah Headquarters. She currently is the Treasurer for CIBSE Home Counties North West and is passionate about helping younger engineers attain full membership status. On her times off and during the weekends, you’ll find Gita watching New Zealand rugby and travelling around Europe.

Ioannis Rizos to Principal Environmental Designer

Ioannis has more than 12 years of experience in the simulation-supported design process. Using his background in mechanical engineering, he has helped develop Atelier Ten’s design expertise and standards. Since joining Atelier Ten in 2013, Ioannis has worked on everything from small, boutique projects to large masterplans. His favourite projects include the Hyundai Pavilion at the 2018 Winter Olympics, the Natural History Museum’s Ground Redevelopment project, and the QEZ Gateway masterplan in Qatar. Ioannis also lectures at the Architectural Association and is a board member of the International Building Performance Simulation Association. He rises above any discussions about national football teams, and in his spare time enjoys walks in the country, playing music and capoeira.

After completing an MArch in Sustainable Environmental Design, Pablo joined Atelier Ten in 2015. Since then, he has improved his knowledge in various areas of sustainable design, including energy and daylighting modelling. He has helped develop new areas of expertise within the company, such as Life Cycle Analysis, healthy building materials and benchmarking. Pablo has gathered an array of qualifications including BREEAM assessor, Home Quality Mark Assessor, LEED AP and is a Chartered Environmentalist with the Energy Institute. He is a member of the glorious Atelier Ten football team and is pretty confident Spain will win the FIFA World Cup again this year.

Susan O’Connell to Senior REVIT coordinator
