About Sergio Coscia

As founding principal and lead designer at CosciaMoos, Sergio Coscia guides the firm’s creative direction with a global perspective and sensitivity to local context. He’s passionate about understanding the historic fabric of cities from a cultural and social perspective, and committed to designing buildings that respect that sense of place. But Sergio balances his deference with boldness, guided by a belief that introducing new ideas into our cities makes them more vital and more resonant with the way we live.

Sergio was born in Belgium, raised in Italy and Philadelphia, and has worked throughout Europe, East Asia, and the Middle East. He co-founded CosciaMoos to share his international experience with large-scale projects while cultivating a deeper connection with clients and the places he works. Sergio believes the best projects are built on strong relationships, and today he leads a team of well-rounded designers that value clear communication at every stage of the process.

An active member of the Urban Land Institute, Sergio sits on the ULI Urban Revitalization Council, which explores new solutions for reinvigorating of cities, neighborhoods, and communities. He supports the local arts community and finds inspiration for his own practice as Chair of the Board of Directors for The Clay Studio, a non-profit institution dedicated to promoting and developing the ceramic arts. And he also enjoys exploring culture and history at home in the kitchen, curing meats; in the garage, restoring his 1984 Alfa Romeo Spider; or on the track, practicing the art of driving fast by racing vintage cars.

Sergio Coscia, AIA, is a registered architect in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Washington DC, and North Carolina. He is an alumnus of the University of Pennsylvania and holds a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Maryland.

About Mateusz Michalak

As an architectural intern at CosciaMoos, Matt is a third‐year student pursuing his Bachelor of Architecture Degree from Drexel University’s 2+4 Architecture Program, with a minor in Construction Management. With a passion for rendering software and technology, he’s most interested in how different mediums of presentation documents create emotional connections for clients to their projects. A New Jersey native with backyard views of New York City, Matt was drawn to pursuing a career in architecture after spending the majority of his life in the shade of one of the most architecturally diverse cities in the world. He spends his time away from work and school rock climbing, hoping to one day be able to design and build his own rock-climbing gym.

About Melissa Nerone

As a project accountant, Melissa is focused on the numbers behind the creativity at CosciaMoos. She works with each team to track project costs and progress, monitors cash flow, and is responsible for the accounting duties of the firm. Originally from a small town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Melissa always knew she wanted to experience city life, so she moved to New York City as soon as possible after graduating from Michigan Technological University. She lived in NYC for over ten years and over that time, she developed an appreciation for the aesthetic of the city, which she was able to hone in on while working for a developer and owner’s representative firm as a senior-level project accountant.

Melissa was drawn to Philadelphia because it has many of the features she loves about NYC but at a pace that better suits her lifestyle. In her role at CosciaMoos, Melissa enjoys being able to provide the tools to team members and to management to help facilitate important decision making. In her free time, Melissa likes to relax with her husband and dog. She also helps with dog and cat care as a volunteer at the Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society (PAWS).

Gemütlichkeit – it’s a German word used to describe a feeling of warmth, coziness, and friendliness. The English language doesn’t have one word to capture this feeling and I appreciate that the Germans found this feeling to be important enough to create one word for it.
