With more than 20 years of experience working for studios in Oslo, Trude established her own studio in 2019. She continues to work predominantly within the residential sector. The studio now has a combination of small and large projects- from house extensions, single family houses to larger development projects. In Italy the focus is mainly on restoration of exisiting buildings.  

Life happens, and in spring 2023 Trude moved to Italy. Altering between city life in Turin, and village life in Verezzi Trude first lived in Italy as a 19-yeard old and has later come back for various periods. In 2017 an old farmhouse in the little village of Verezzi was bought, and time was spent between Oslo and restoration work in Liguria. Since 2022 Italy has become home, and life is split between the Finale Ligure area and city life in Turin.

There is however a strong links to Norway, and contact is kept regularily with clients and colleagues.
