Director, Rio Architects
Ffion joined Rio in 2014 as an Architect and eight years later became a member of the board of directors. She is an extremely effective interface between clients and design teams and can manage multiple stakeholder types. Ffion has broad cross-sector experience, having worked on a range of projects across the UK, with considerable expertise in successfully delivering complex projects.
Notably, Ffion led the architectural team that developed the successful Bridge Street Exchange, a 26-storey student accommodation project in Cardiff. The recognisable tall building utilises modern methods of construction and is significant for its pioneering use of unitised façades in Wales.
Beyond her roles as an Architect and a Director, Ffion promotes networking and collaboration within the property and construction industry as the former Chair of the Fbe Cambria Committee, allowing her to raise money for her chosen charity for the year – Kids Cancer.
