Svavar Magnusson

Svavar Magnusson, Assoc. AIA, started as an Architectural Intern within our office in May 2016. He worked as an intern for one year and later transitioned into a full-time Architectural Graduate in November 2021 upon graduating from Lund University in Sweden. Svavar is primarily responsible for assisting with the architectural design for all assigned projects and being a member of the ad hoc project team. This includes working with engineering consultants to complete construction documents, bidding, negotiating, contract administration, and closing out projects. He also assists in the creation and development of 3D-rendered models for the firm’s projects.

Svavar is currently in the process of completing his architectural registration exams and is accruing the required hours to become a fully licensed Architect.
