Paul Pena Castro
Senior Designer
Paul integrates advanced digital modelling tools, including ArchiCAD, Rhino and Grasshopper, into the studio’s design workflow to bridge the gap between complex building design ideas and buildable documentation. With 14 years of design experience across residential, multi-unit and heritage projects, he is deeply passionate about how spatial volume, light and circulation shape how people experience a home. Paul’s work driving the concept design, council documentation and construction co-ordination for Cromer, Russell Lea and Earlwood showcases his ability to resolve complex site constraints into elegant, modern living spaces. Away from design software, he explores computer science, plays outdoor sports and practises portrait painting.
Formal Qualification
