Sanya is a principal of SPA, a practice well known for breathing new life into old buildings whilst limiting their carbon footprint.

In addition to running a practice, Sanya founded NW3 CLT, the first North London’s Community Land Trust in order to develop sustainable, locally affordable community-led housing. Their first development is due to start on site next year.

Practice awards include: AJ Retrofit Award, NLA Don’t Move Improve, Camden Design Award, Galvanizers’ Association Award, etc.
