Sarita is a trained architect from Aalto University in Finland, and graduate landscape architect from The Oslo School for Architecture and Design. In addition, she studied at Rhode Island School of Design. She founded her own office, Helsinki-based RÅ architecture, in 2016 and has several years of experience working for offices in both Helsinki and Oslo.  She works in depth with context and engages with a range of scales from creating spatial atmospheres to developing large-scale landscape strategies. Sarita sees beauty in material detailing to water management and aims for projects that are sustainable and contextual. She writes, makes prints, builds models and creates tangible experiences.
