She is the founder and director of the multidisciplinary architecture bureau Treivas, which works on a variety of creative spheres from collectible design to architecture of cultural public spaces. In parallel with her career as an architect, she works with crystal glass working techniques, exploring craftsmanship traditions and their contemporary reinterpretation. She is drawn to the material’s paradox, its rich and complex history, its plastic qualities, and the juxtaposition between hardness and conventional fragility. Treivas has participated in various international solo and group exhibitions, such as the Venice Biennale (2015), the Design Museum in London (2023), and more.
