From immersive environments to universities, museums, and cultural organizations, Oliver McGovern’s experience has reinforced his interest in how design shapes the way people experience the world. He especially enjoys using visual communication to move ideas from imagination to reality.
A background in both design and construction gives Josh Robertson an appreciation for thoughtful detailing and the complexities of existing buildings. His interest in higher education has drawn him toward creating long-lasting spaces centered on the people and communities they serve.
Curiosity drives Jacob Seddelmeyer’s approach to architecture. With experience across mixed-use, hospitality, adaptive reuse, and urban development, he is interested in creating healthy, sustainable spaces that strengthen institutional communities and respond thoughtfully to what already exists.
And supporting all that activity is our new Office Coordinator, Lisa Purdy.
