Designing spaces like these allows her to promote the formation of ties within a company and develop comprehensive design concepts that are wholly tailored to their users.

Thanks to their hard work, she and her team have received the German Interior Design Award, the Red Dot Design Award, and the IF Award, and their designs were displayed as part of the exhibition Frau Architekt Seit mehr als 100 Jahren: Frauen im Architekturberuf, on the history of female architects in Germany and Greece. She has also formed part of several judges' panels and has written industry-specialized articles.
