Tanya has worked with RSHP for nine years and I have had the pleasure of working with her for the last 18 months. In this period, Tanya was a member of a small team working in London on a major urban design project in Madrid.
This project was especially complex not only because of the sheer scale of the endeavour (it covers an area of 6km long and 1km wide) but also because of the extremely complex relations between the client and the planning authorities. The direct result was that the team has faced weekly deadlines for the entire period. Tanya is exceptionally hard working and dealt with the pressure with a commendable degree of calm and elegance.
She is an excellent team player who is always keen to produce work of the highest quality. She also has an excellent graphic eye.
Tanya worked on the Cancer Centre at Guy’s Hospital London where she helped develop the interior design and produced planning and construction drawings; residential projects in China and Monte Carlo, where she developed interior and cladding packages; office buildings in London and Sydney, where she was part of the early design stages, and a masterplan in Madrid.
She was a valued team member and always enjoyable to work with - conscientious, hardworking and reliable, as well as being honest, kind and good humoured.
