Mario Roman

senior project designer

Mario is a designer in our studio, sought after for his skills in 3D rendering and discerning eye for contemporary design. He has been recognized for his deft ability to work under pressure and communicate layered designs in a straightforward, yet meaningful way.

To produce his best work, Mario is on a never-ending quest for self-improvement, absorbing software and tools with each new undertaking. Thanks to this approach, he has been a crucial team member on a diverse set of projects, from hotels to microbreweries and schools.

When he’s not working on bringing our mixed-use and hospitality projects to life, he is spending time with his wife and two kids. He wears many colors thanks to his Mexican-American heritage and diehard love of FC Barcelona.
