Alina Hughes

Dip.Arch. RIBA, Director at 2hD Architects

Alina hails from Bucharest, Romania, where she completed two years of her architectural training at the famous Ion Mincu school, before transferring her studies (and life) to the UK in 1991. She has experience in a wide range of architectural practice, from small scale conservation work to multi-million commercial projects. She brings a focus (based on her MA research) on getting the design ideas right and being true to them throughout the process. Recently, Alina has focussed on architectural education and research, having designed and run a new architecture degree at Nottingham Trent University. She is also president of the Nottingham and Derby Society of Architects.

At 2hD, Alina is the networking lynchpin and design director, often bringing in new work, keeping a weather eye on project development and conducting design reviews for the team.
