Angelica Trevino Baccon is a principal at SHoP Architects in New York City. She leverages deep expertise in and a passion for evolving technology to create inspiring, sustainable spaces for people, often in next-generation workplaces. She led the SHoP teams for the new Uber Headquarters in San Francisco and the Atlassian Headquarters in Sydney, as well as several other large-scale projects for major global tech companies. Angelica has great success in meeting fast-paced and far-reaching design and delivery challenges and  finding consensus with multi-layered stakeholder groups—in the interest of spatial vitality and community connection—for some of the firm’s most complex projects. She holds a Bachelor in Architecture degree from ITESM in Monterrey, Mexico, and a Master of Architecture from Harvard University, where she has also served as a professor.

  • How growing up in Monterrey, Mexico influenced the way Angelica views cities and spaces
  • Seeing a city absorb a project after its completion
  • What the future of work and workspaces will be like, and what elements will draw people to come back into the office
  • Thinking about architecture as experiences rather than iconic forms
  • Leveraging technology to think of space in a different way and to demystify the design process for clients
