Valya Kerisheva
Associate
Valya joined Exterior Architecture in 2021. She has a wide range of experience, covering everything from large masterplans and major regeneration projects with comprehensive public realms to detailed site design. Her involvement in all design stages, from concept design all the way to practical completion, gives her a strong understanding of what successful project management looks like.
For Valya, every place matters despite its location or size. Her design vision is formed around two key elements – the users and the biodiversity of the place. By understanding the users’ needs we can create an exceptional lifestyle experience. On other hand, she understands the importance of preserving and enhancing the biodiversity. That is why Valya is a strong advocate for introducing nature into the urban setting in a sustainable manner.
Valya received the 30 Landscape Architects under 30 award in 2017.
