Partner, NEUF Architects
Partner architect since 2020, Lilia joined NEUF architect(e)s in 2011 to contribute to the development of the Centre hospitalier de l’Université de Montréal (CHUM), one of the largest healthcare projects in North America. She now leads the Toronto office and oversees the firm’s Ontario portfolio, which includes large-scale master plans, the renewal of emblematic spaces within Canada’s financial core, and complex infrastructure in the healthcare, aerospace, and high-rise residential sectors. Her recent work includes the expansion of the Perley Rideau Health Centre and the Bombardier Aircraft Assembly Centre at Pearson International Airport.
Lilia embraces advanced modelling technologies such as BIM and emphasizes rigorous team coordination to ensure design and technical excellence at every stage of a project. A committed communicator, she is actively engaged in conversations on the future of the profession through the Ontario Association of Architects (OAA) and the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada (RAIC), and regularly takes part in international events such as the Design & Health Conference in Austria and the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale alongside researchers from ETH Zurich, the University of Toronto, and Toronto Metropolitan University.
