Our philosophy:
Sustainability, energy efficiency and comfort
At Senda Design, we believe in creating efficient, comfortable homes through close collaboration and a personal touch.
Our process begins with you
We build strong relationships with our clients, accompanying you through the process, and listening closely to understand your vision to tailor our designs to meet your specific needs. Every project is a unique partnership, resulting in spaces that truly feel like home.
Collaboration and local traders network
We also work hand-in-hand with local businesses, supporting the community and enriching each project with locally sourced materials and craftsmanship. By combining energy-efficient design with sustainable practices, we create homes that are as mindful of the environment as they are of your comfort.
Welcome to Senda Design! I’m Maria Sanchez, founder of Senda Design, created in 2024 as a natural extension of my journey in sustainable architecture.
After many years in traditional architectural services, I took a bold step toward sustainable construction, pursuing an MSc in Green Building and diving into hands-on training to learn how natural materials become living, breathing buildings. This journey has carried me across Europe, Latin America, and, the UK, where I’ve immersed myself in building and teaching with earth, straw, timber, and bamboo. Every step of the way has reinforced my belief that meaningful design goes far beyond a drawing pad—it lives in the materials, the process, and the people.
At Senda Design, we’ll uncover the heart of your project together. You can focus on dreaming up your future home while I handle the technicalities and guide you through every stage, from navigating bureaucracy to transforming your vision into reality. My background in facilitation means I make design approachable, creating spaces that resonate with your values and are truly human-focused.
Senda Design combines my technical expertise, hands-on experience, and love for natural materials to offer a holistic, personalised service. With a deep understanding of sustainable techniques and construction methods, I ensure that every element is considered. Your project won’t just be designed to look beautiful—it will be built to last and enhance your living experience.
Why Senda?
The word 'Senda' means 'path'—a symbol of our commitment to guiding clients through a thoughtful, collaborative design process. We believe that every project is a journey, and we are here to help you find the perfect path to a home that reflects your values and respects the environment.
Who is Senda Design?
Our goal is to accompany you in the process of developing your home project and provide you with a home that balances beauty, comfort, and a commitment to a lower environmental impact.
