Manuela Belova has always been passionate about high-rise buildings. This passion has naturally led her towards graduating as an architect at the French École Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture de Paris-Belleville in 2011.
An international career followed, with various projects in France, Belgium and Bulgaria, including the construction of the new Headquarters of the Council of the EU in Brussels. In 2016 Manuela co-founded her own practice in Sofia, VA Architects Ltd., with a vision to bring the latest achievements of architecture and urban design to her home country, especially in the field of tall construction.
