His fascination for architecture began on a journey to his family’s ancestral homeland as a sprightly eight-year-old where he explored ancient buildings and monuments throughout Greece and Turkey. Vasili obtained his master’s degree in architecture from the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, where he studied as a Frank Knox Fellow under many of the world’s foremost design educators and practitioners. Following his studies, he began his design career in the New York office of SOM, a historic leader in the practice of architecture responsible for some of the planet’s most notable and technically complex buildings. At SOM, Vasili worked on several iconic projects across three continents, including the Hudson Yards master plan in New York, the Moynihan Station/Madison Square Garden redevelopment in New York, Manhattan West, and Wood Wharf towers in London. Since returning to his hometown of Winnipeg and founding Amphora, Vasili has steadily built a design-focused architecture studio which has completed multiple public and private sector projects throughout the Canadian Prairies.
