I have been working in London, in the architecture and construction industries, since 2007, following work experience in Germany and my native country, Italy. In 2010 I established KIMA Architecture. From the beginning the practice has been involved in high-end residential refurbishment for clients who expected a turn-key service, growing steadily in experience in both architecture and interiors. In 2016 the company expanded and changed its name to KIMA Architecture and Interiors. Through working in central London, the practice has gained experience and an understanding of the demands of conservation areas, listed buildings, basements and extensions.We recently completed and are currently involved in retail projects and mixed-use development. We also expanded from working exclusively in central London to having projects outside of London and internationally.
