18 Dec 2025

Description

Marti Gallucci is a Partner and Design Director at Mason Studio, where she has been a key part of the firm’s evolution for over 13 years. She joined the studio as an intern during her fourth year of university, became its first employee, and has grown alongside the practice as it expanded into a multidisciplinary team of approximately 25 people. Her work spans hospitality, restaurants, hotels, private residences, retail, multi unit residential, and self initiated exhibitions and installations, with a strong emphasis on sensory driven, immersive environments.She lives in Stouffville, Ontario, and was raised primarily in Goodwood, with time spent in both Stouffville and Uxbridge. Growing up on a 100 acre rural property, she was exposed early to renovation and hands on building through projects completed with her family and her grandfather, experiences that shaped her interest in space, materiality, and how environments are lived in. She also competed extensively in sports, including figure skating and rep hockey, and played in a tournament that included Team China during their Olympic preparations.Gallucci initially pursued architecture, completing a year at Carleton University in Ottawa in the History and Theory of Architecture program before earning a four year degree in Interior Design from Ryerson University. At Mason Studio, she contributed to early landmark projects including the Duke condominium sales office in the Junction and the Andaz Hotel in Ottawa, where the studio designed the common areas, restaurants, rooftop outdoor space, and guest suites. Her work on that project included collaboration with Canadian artists and makers such as Art Bank, MSDS Studio, Derek McLeod, and Creative Matters, reinforcing the studio’s commitment to craft, storytelling, and place.Outside of practice, she prioritizes time with her family and continues to renovate and build with her husband, including plans for a new home in the countryside.Curated Podcast Sponsors:⁠Caplan's Appliances⁠⁠The Doors⁠⁠Aquanta Pools⁠ To connect with our sponsors, email me: [email protected]⁠Behind the Build Instagram
