Ausma Skujiņa

Ausma Skujiņa (18 July 1931 - 13 August 2015) was a Latvian architect. Working for firms such as Latgyprogorstroy and for her own private practice, she designed and renovated housing and churches in such places as Liepāja and Mārupe. Biography Ausma Skujiņa was born on 18 July 1931 in , a village in the western area of Latvia.

From 1968 to 1979, she worked at apartment architecture firm Latgyprogorstroy, where her designing style "returned to her roots"; in one case, the yard management of Lauma, a residential building in Liepāja, was improved as part of her work. Zvirgzdiņš said that she "acted as the conscience of the profession — sometimes harsh in Latvian, but deeply interested, evaluating both her own and her colleagues' work with a strict standard of ethical responsibility."
