Hi !

I’m Léa, a passionate interior architect & architectural assistant based in Cork. My work focuses primarly on healthcare environments across Ireland.

My practice is centered around mental health and human-centered design. I aim to create inclusive spaces that are functional, user-friendly and aesthetic. In addition to that, a strong interest in BIM and sustainability leads my projects towards innovative solutions. My MSc. research focused on developing a framework for the automation of Embodied Carbon calculations for Interior Architecture using BIM and environmental certifications.

I joined O’Connell Mahon Architects in Cork in 2020. Over the years, my position as an interior architect and architectural assistant has led me to work on a number of projects including hospitals and offices.
