Background

About Anton Makarenkov

Senior Architect with 19 years of experience delivering large-scale, high-end projects in residential, hospitality, and industrial sectors. Adept at leading cross-functional teams and guiding projects from concept to completion with a focus on innovation and sustainability. Extensive expertise in Revit and BIM, combined with a strong grasp of construction methods and codes, ensures both design excellence and technical precision. As the Founder of AURA, I develop architecture as a form of identity — turning personal stories, brand visions, and cultural values into spaces that are unique, sustainable, and future-proof. AURA bridges design innovation with narrative, helping entrepreneurs, developers, and homeowners create environments that reflect who they are while embracing resilience and sustainable growth. Throughout my career I have combined hands-on project leadership with a passion for mentoring and collaboration, consistently exceeding client expectations. I am currently building AURA as an independent studio while also open to opportunities with forward-thinking global practices where I can contribute at scale and continue shaping transformative, human-centered architecture.
