#92: Design, Innovation, and Community ft. in-ARCHITECTS

from Cultivate with Alex Canavan · host CNY Women's Network

In this episode of Cultivate CNY, we couldn't be more excited to welcome Kristin Almasian and Anthony Rojas to the pod! As visionary architects at in-ARCHITECTS, Kristin and Anthony are driven by design, innovation, and community impact that extends far beyond blueprints and buildings. With over 25 years of combined experience, they've mastered the art of transforming client visions into reality through thoughtful planning, cutting-edge technology, and a deep understanding of how spaces can shape human experiences.Their collaborative approach brings together complementary expertise that elevates every project they touch. Anthony leads design strategies with a focus on clarity and collaboration, ensuring that each space tells a meaningful story while meeting practical needs. Kristin specializes in BIM management and immersive virtual presentations, using advanced technology to help clients visualize their dreams before the first foundation is poured. Together, they've worked across diverse project types—from multi-family housing to adaptive re-use and commercial spaces—each one a testament to their commitment to architectural excellence.What sets in-ARCHITECTS apart is their dedication to the broader architectural community and the future of their profession. Both have served as leaders within AIA Central New York, advocating for the next generation of professionals and advancing design standards that benefit the entire region. Their work reflects a belief that great architecture doesn't just create beautiful spaces—it builds stronger communities, preserves history through adaptive re-use, and creates environments where people can thrive.In this episode, we dive into their shared passion for design and architecture, explore the exciting growth happening in Syracuse, and get an inside look at some of the innovative projects that are shaping the future at in-ARCHITECTS.Check out the in-ARCHITECTS websiteFollow in-ARCHITECTS on Instagram⁠Register⁠⁠⁠ for CNY Wellness FestReady to gain access to exclusive discounts on some of our favorite women-owned products and services in Central New York?
