Piotr Szczesniak is an architect at Bygg Architecture & Design. His architectural journey began in post-communist Warsaw and reached a defining stage at TU/e Eindhoven, shaping a design approach rooted in transformation, cultural awareness and curiosity.

Growing up in a rapidly changing society, where traces of the past met the challenges of the new, gave Piotr a distinctive perspective on architecture. Combined with his interests in history, geography and biology, this background informs the way he reads places, people and systems.

Known for his abundant creativity, Piotr has a talent for rapidly generating ideas and bringing them to life through strong visual and rendering skills. He treats each project as a canvas, visualising concepts that balance order with spontaneity, and simplicity with bursts of colour, texture and joy.

Within Bygg, Piotr places the wishes and well-being of clients and users at the centre of his work, while staying attentive to the natural world. His approach combines critical thinking with a commitment to sustainable and progressive change, often drawing parallels with the evolutionary processes found in nature.

Alongside his work at Bygg, Piotr contributes to the academic field as a tutor at TU/e Eindhoven, where he shares his knowledge, curiosity and passion for architecture with new generations of designers.
