We are honored to stand alongside Lion's Head at the launch of a project that elevates the standards of modern industrial architecture in Romania.

As the architectural and general design partner, A26 Studio is proud to contribute to a €65 million investment built on efficiency, sustainability, and long-term vision. Spanning 85,000 sqm of Class A logistic spaces in Popești-Leordeni, this development sets a new benchmark for the next generation of industrial design.

Moments like this remind us that great buildings start with plans but grow through partnerships, trust, and shared ambition.

Congratulations to the entire Lion’s Head team and all partners involved.
We’re excited for what comes next. 🚀

Gas Station Network, Romania

Designed as part of a new generation of fuel stations, this project redefines the visual and functional language of roadside architecture.
Clean lines, sharp contrasts, and continuous light accents create a dynamic identity visible both day and night.

Every element , from the canopy structure to the illuminated signage , was designed to express motion and clarity, reflecting the essence of a brand built on energy and forward drive. A modern landmark for a company in constant movement.

Logistics Center, Ilfov, Romania

Designed for scale, precision, and flow.
This 37,191 sqm logistics hub was conceived as a perfectly calibrated system — where architecture serves efficiency.Each line, loading bay, and access route has a single purpose: to accelerate movement.

The modular structure allows flexibility for storage and distribution, while the clean geometry and controlled palette express the discipline of logistics at its highest level. It’s not a building that competes for attention, it performs. Quietly. Reliably. Every hour of every day.

National Courier Headquarters, Romania
A building designed to embody the very essence of what it represents, movement, precision, and delivery. The concept begins with a simple idea: the box. The universal courier symbol becomes architecture itself.

The volume, clean and compact, mirrors the reliability of the service it hosts, while the floating upper block suggests motion, a package in transit, caught mid-journey. Inside, transparency and circulation define the rhythm of the workspace, connecting logistics with leadership.

Logistic Park Ghiroda, Timișoara
This 40,000 sqm logistics park is designed for speed, clarity, and scalable operations. The plan organizes large-span warehouses, cross-dock options, and administrative offices into a coherent layout with direct access to the ring road network. Truck and car flows are fully separated.

Deep truck courts, aligned loading docks, and wide turning radii reduce dwell time and simplify maneuvers. Modular bays allow phased leasing and easy expansion, while clear internal grids support varied racking and automation scenarios.

Circulation is intuitive from gatehouse to dock to dispatch, with continuous perimeter access and logical wayfinding. Every line follows function, from the spacing of the docks to the placement of the yards, delivering a reliable, high-throughput platform for regional distribution.

Hypermarket Chain. Domestic & International
Designed for operational efficiency and spatial clarity, this multi-site retail network unifies anchor tenants, high-street units, food courts, and last-meter logistics into a single, scalable system. Each site starts from a modular kit-of-parts: repeatable bays that accommodate different lease depths, legible circulation spines, and consolidated service bands for rapid fit-out.

The façade language is restrained and precise with clean vertical rhythms and calibrated signage zones that reconcile the scale of anchors with smaller inline stores. Plan logic separates flows: direct truck access and back-of-house on the service edge; visitors on the public edge with seamless connections between parking, main entrances, and shared amenities. Loading docks align to shorten turnaround times; internal grids allow quick reconfiguration as tenant mixes evolve.

From regional towns to international hubs, every building follows function: clear wayfinding, efficient turnover between retail, storage, and distribution, and a coherent architectural identity that stays consistent across climates and contexts.

Pharmaceutical Factory, Romania
This facility was designed with efficiency and precision in mind two qualities at the core of pharmaceutical production. With over 8500 sqm of built area, the project integrates large-scale production halls, logistics zones with direct truck access, and administrative offices into a single, coherent volume.

The façade is simple and functional, reflecting the industrial purpose, while the spatial layout ensures smooth circulation between manufacturing, storage, and distribution. Every line of the building follows function from the modular bays that allow scalability, to the alignment of loading docks that optimize logistics.

In places that seem to never sleep, we design projects that invite you to slow down. The Timpuri Noi Collective Housing Complex in Bucharest blends utility, nature, urban rhythm, and natural light with a deep respect for how people move, feel, and live in a total usable floor area for the apartments of 9222 sqm.
A project developed to answer real needs and daring to reshape.

Bakery Factory, Romania
11,000 sqm Industrial buildings are often treated as machines. Eficient, rigid, stripped of character. In our vision, a bakery factory is more than production lines and logistics. It is a place where precision meets rhythm, where clarity of flow defines both process and space. At 11,000 sqm, this bakery facility was designed with the same principles we apply to cultural or residential projects: natural light wherever possible, circulation that feels intuitive, proportions that create balance. Efficiency was the requirement. Endurance was the goal. Because architecture, even at this scale, is not only about how it works. It is about how it lasts.

YMY Residence, Romania
Collective housing often risks becoming repetitive, with stacked floors and standardized layouts that function but rarely inspire. At YMY Residence, the design followed a different principle: belonging. The geometry opens to light and rhythm.

Façades use alternating colors and depths to create identity, while terraces extend the apartments into the city. Interiors follow the same care for balance, with calm proportions, natural light, and materials chosen for timeless comfort.

YMY Residence was imagined not as a block of units but as a framework for community. A place where circulation, orientation, and atmosphere shape everyday life as much as walls and windows. Because good collective housing is not about repetition.
It is about resonance.

The Partium Christian University wasn’t just a project. It was a chance to design a space created for thinking. A place that supports focus, dialogue, and the real rhythm of an academic day.
The volumes express calmness and clarity, and daylight isn’t a feature, it’s part of the thinking process. Visual movement flows naturally, without forcing direction.
It’s not a typical public building. It’s a quiet proposal for what education could look like when architecture is an ally, rather than a performer.

Abandoned industrial platforms are not just leftover structures.
They’re unused potential. And we’ve ignored them long enough in the last decades. In cities across Europe, conversion proved it can do more than rescue buildings, it can reset entire neighbourhoods.

It can turn what's forgotten into something people return to.
Reactivating these spaces isn’t about nostalgia.
It’s about giving identity back to places that still matter.
We no longer live in a city where work, home, and leisure belong in separate zones. Life is layered and cities should be too.

In the Jiu Valley, there’s a real chance to shift from decline to direction.
But it won’t happen by starting over. It will happen only by building with what’s already there. Because cities are not blank slates, they’re palimpsests.
And when architecture treats them as such, astonishing ideas come back to life.
