In this special episode ahead of International Women's Day this March 8 and for her debut podcast for Talking Architecture & Design, our Digital Editor Clémence Carayol talks to Gray Puksand Lead Partner Maria Correia to discuss her journey as a woman in architecture, the challenges she faced, and the progress being made toward greater gender equality in the industry. 

At Gray Puksand, Maria Correia’s primary responsibility is to deliver relevant, innovative and intelligent design solutions that deliver results and exceed expectations.
 
She has over 20 years’ experience working on interior design, retail design to brand and customer experience projects. 
 
 Correia has worked in leading international brand and retail agencies from luxury, fashion, leisure, workspace, beauty, financial services and technology.
 
 As a strategic, creative thinker, she can move from strategy to creative solutions via insights, research and brainstorms to uncover the ‘big idea’. 

As a creative leader, she inspires teams of varying disciplines to distil the brand essence in order to deliver creative solutions that deliver results for clients.
