Our Team

Two disciplines. One vision. Unforgettable events — shaped where structure becomes story and artistry becomes atmosphere.

Heather Horovitz brings more than 20 years of culinary expertise to The Event Architecture Studio, shaped by her career as a chef in multi‑outlet resorts and private catering. Working in high‑pressure, high‑volume environments trained her to think in layers — flavor, texture, temperature, timing — and to orchestrate complex experiences with precision and artistry. That foundation gives her a rare ability to design events as multisensory journeys rather than simply visual moments.

Heather’s chef‑driven perspective informs every detail she touches. She understands how people gather, how they move through a space, and how sensory cues — color, aroma, lighting, texture — shape emotion. Her instinct for palette, proportion, and atmosphere creates events that feel warm, inviting, and deeply personal.

What makes Heather uniquely qualified is the combination of her creative intuition and her strategic discipline. Alongside her culinary background, she brings years of experience as a financial executive, giving her mastery of operational clarity, budget strategy, and seamless execution. She translates big visions into beautifully orchestrated realities through thoughtful planning, transparent communication, and a calm, confident process.

Heather’s signature is unmistakable: design that feels alive, intentional, and deeply felt — experiences that resonate long after the last guest leaves.

Joana Berling is the architectural mind behind The Event Architecture Studio, bringing more than a decade of experience as a licensed architect, Certified General Contractor, and Green Designer. Her background in designing complex, high‑performance environments gives her a rare ability to approach events the way an architect approaches a building — with structure, intention, and a deep understanding of how people move through space.

Joana’s expertise lies in translating architectural principles into immersive event experiences. She understands how form shapes emotion, how circulation influences connection, and how the smallest spatial detail can transform the atmosphere of a room. Her architectural eye guides everything from floor plans and guest flow to the structural logic behind installations, lighting, and décor.

What sets Joana apart is her ability to merge creativity with technical mastery. She excels at problem‑solving, collaboration, and building environments that are both visually striking and structurally sound. Her leadership on state and national design‑build committees reflects her commitment to elevating the built environment — and, by extension, the event environments she creates.

Joana’s signature is unmistakable: spaces that are intentional, immersive, and architecturally grounded — environments that tell a story through structure, form, and flow.
