About the founder,
Anja Olivier

StudiA Creative Director and founder, Anja Olivier has more than 10 years professional experience and has been involved in a wide variety of planning and design projects in both the public and private sector.

With combined skills as Registered Professional Architect and Urban Designer as well as an honours degree in Anthropology and a degree in Interior Architecture, Anja has a broad overview of the bigger picture and what an integrated development could and should look like.  She has also completed studies in Property Development and Investment, thus complimenting her design skills with the implementation and financial aspects of property development. 

We believe that our passion for both the built environment and the human element makes the perfect combination to use our skills to enhance the places we live in and use every day.  Our experience in both the private and public sector has afforded us the opportunity to see the picture from both sides. We strongly believe in making a difference in the world, with a focus on Africa and its developing areas.
