Anastasia Leone

Building Designer

BDA Member No. 1178-10

Anastasia has been designing for as long as she can remember. Whether it was building new recipes in her family’s restaurant, sewing clothes or excelling in art at high school, everything seemed to lead her to her true passion – building design – which she has been practising for over three decades.

When Anastasia isn’t behind the drawing board, you can find her stoking her longstanding passion for cooking, solving sudoku puzzles and bringing light to canvases with her abstract painting. As a mother, raising her three children, Anastasia has a deep understanding of family needs and how they shape the built form.
