"We wanted to strengthen the expertise and experience of the three offices in a single, more coherent and efficient vision so as to raise standards for our services to the point where we can meet the challenges facing today's architecture. CUMULUS brings together people, ideas and skills to create an infrastructure for the future", said Cumulus partner Liviu Zagan.
The CUMULUS team consists of 40 architects, led by three executive partners - Adrian Soare, Liviu Zăgan, Răzvan Puchici - and five coordinating partners - Eliza Yokina, Elena Dragu, Ivona Amariţei, Ioana Moangă and Costin Beekman.
"Architecture generates development and transforms behaviours, interacts with people and communities by altering the space they live in and work with. Last but not least, it offers them an infrastructure for the ever-developing urban life. Get them together. That's what CUMULUS means for us - to bring people together for a common purpose - the better good", explains Adrian Soare, partner CUMULUS.
"CUMULUS is more than the sum of the three merging offices. It is a new identity that we each build. Everyone brings their own experience to this team, but the common experience of the whole team has a beneficial impact on the individual capacity", added Rămuvan Puchici, CUMULUS partner.
So far, PZP, SYAA and ARXTUDIO have signed hundreds of architectural projects, including office buildings such as Victoria Center, Olympia Tower, Quadra Place and Dacia-Renault Industrial Spaces.
The three Architecture Bureaus have won numerous awards and distinctions at the Biennials and Annuals of Architecture, CIJ Award for Best Office Building, have won prizes in national and international architecture competitions, etc., and have collaborated with clients such as Petrom, BCR, Autodesk, Dacia-Renault, IBM, Intel, Dell, Mercedes-Benz, Skanska, Vastint, NEPI, Global Worth, Argo, Panatoni, Grupo LAR, CEC Bank, Idea Bank, Nexte Bank, Ogilvy and Mather, Salzburg Investments or Loreco Investments.
