British Council for Offices appoints new president

Open-access content 13th July 2018

13 July 2018 | Prithvi Pandya


The British Council for Offices (BCO) has appointed Katrina Kostic Samen as its new president.

 

Samen, who takes over from Ken Shuttleworth, started her career at Wilmot Bower Architects. She then moved to Gensler, where she assisted in setting up the firm's London office in 1989.

 

After 19 years at Gensler, Samen founded KKS in 2004, an all-female-led interior architectural practice based in London.

 

She has been a BCO member since 2006, a board member for eight years, and will be the organisation's third female president.

 

On her appointment, Samen said: "I will work to make the BCO a more diverse organisation. 21 per cent of this year's conference delegates were female - a significant increase on previous years.

 

She added: "Throughout the rest of my presidential year I will look to build on this success."
