About

We founded Centerbrook in 1975 as a community of creative problem solvers working together to advance place making and the craft of building. Seeking inspiration from the particular rather than the universal, we use specific details of program, site, surroundings, and cultural history in order to deliver a compelling sense of place.

Process

A collaborative firm with an exceptional history of building over four decades, we have developed an in-house road map for quality and budget assurance. We call our project management approach The Centerbrook Method.

Planning and architectural design begin by assimilating needs of program, site, fund-raising, budgets, and implementation. Practical issues are placed on a pedestal at Centerbrook. Solving a project’s functional requirements is viewed as an absolute requirement before any architectural honor can be truly deserved.

To advance its humanist bent, we invite stakeholders and users to become involved in the early stages of projects through the use of trademark participatory workshops. Workshops range from modest to extensive and even have included interactive television shows pressing whole urban populations to the planning of their cities. Fundamental to all our workshops is identification of design options and a friendly ear for participants’ preferences.

Place

Our office is a nineteenth-century compound of factory buildings alongside a millstream on the Connecticut shoreline. Since 1690 waterpower has been a principal feature, making ours one of the earliest Industrial Revolution sites in America. Our building continues that tradition today with a modern turbine system that generates electricity. Our community of architects and artisans continues our site’s long history of making. Our brick building’s open spaces, rough wood floors, and simple brick walls are conducive to creativity.

Several staff members have been with us for more than 30 years. Our architects hail from all over the United States and from many countries around the world. Their diverse talents make our factory a vital place of experimentation where design is enriched by many streams of influence.

People

Mark Simon Principal

Mark was born into the world of the arts. His father, Sidney Simon, was a sculptor, and his mother, Joan Crowell, a writer and composer, inspirations that led Simon to major in sculpture at college. After graduating cum laude in 1968 from Brandeis University, he switched to architecture. Being naturally gregarious, he felt he would be happier working with other people and that architecture might touch more diverse lives than sculpture.

After graduating from the Yale School of Architecture in 1972, Mark initially built cabinets and houses, but then worked in several architecture offices, and was soon hired by Charles Moore, his former teacher and dean at Yale. They collaborated on a number of homes, and in 1978 Simon was named as a partner at Moore Grover Harper, which eventually became Centerbrook Architects.

From the start of his career, Mark has been a pioneer in the practice of “green” architecture, beginning with his design in 1973 of an “Earth House” that was built into a hillside and decades later continues to take advantage of the clean heating and cooling energy of terra firma. Today Mark’s practice ranges from private houses and highly crafted furniture, to commercial, institutional, academic, and religious projects. His projects span from China to Mexico to local projects in New England. Recent houses like the Lakewood house in the Northeast and Casa Ambar in Cabo are explorations in new aesthetics.

Mark continues designing groundbreaking buildings for independent schools like Pomfret, Berkshire, University School, and Keystone Academy in Beijing. He has designed many landmark buildings, among them: LancasterHistory in Pennsylvania; Nauticus – The National Maritime Center in Virginia; Park Synagogue East in Ohio, the Chemistry Building and Business School at the University of Connecticut; Yale’s Kroon Hall (with Hopkins Architects); the Yale Cullman-Heyman Tennis Center; Reese Stadium, the Kenney Center and Jensen Plaza at the renowned Yale Bowl. He is now completing a multi-building Alumni Center for Duke University and leading a substantial team to comprehensively renew and extend Yale’s famed Peabody Museum of Natural History.

Mark's innovative design has been noted by Time Magazine and The New York Times, among others. His 112 architectural awards include the prestigious American Institute of Architects Architecture Firm Award that Centerbrook received in 1998. In 1990, he was inducted into the American Institute of Architects College of Fellows.

Jim Childress Principal

Jim joined Centerbrook Architects in 1979 and became a principal (owner) in 1996. In 1994 he was selected as one of the decade’s “40 National Architects under 40” by the Architectural League of New York and Interior Magazine.

Jim has won more than 60 design awards including the American Institute of Architects 1998 Architecture Firm Award. He was invested, for design, into the College of Fellows of the American Institute of Architects in 2001 and recognized for Professional Achievement by the Rhode Island School of Design at their 2005 Commencement. He is a long standing member the National AIA Committee on Design (AIA-COD), serving on its Advisory Group and as the 2015 Chair.

Jim’s portfolio includes the Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine in Connecticut; the Wolf Law Building, Center for Community, and Medical Library buildings for the University of Colorado; the headquarters building for the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) in Lander, Wyoming; a museum and athletic center for Fairfield University; projects for independent schools - MICDS in St. Louis, BB&N in Cambridge, Horace Mann in New York City, and Ridley College in St. Catherines, Ontario.

He is especially proud of working for Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory for over 30 years on 16 projects - including laboratories, a library, auditoriums, a dining hall, housing, a child care center, chiller plants, development offices, and a DNA learning center for the world-renowned center for molecular biology research.

Jim is vested in sustainability with two of his projects certified LEED Platinum, three certified LEED Gold, and a carbon free - Living Building Challenge level - innovation campus for the South Kent School.

His civic commitments include serving on the Town of Essex School Board, the Vice Chair of the Elementary School Building Committee, Planning and Zoning Boards, and Essex Fire Station Building Committee over ten years. He is currently an active volunteer for the Essex Library, including overseeing and funding a lecture series - the Centerbrook Architects Lecture Series. With a focus on architecture and landscaping the series is in its ninth year and brings 8-9 speakers to the library annually.

Todd E. Andrews Principal

Todd has successfully tackled a variety of building designs during two decades at Centerbrook ⎯ from a working farm in Maine to a major expansion of a research facility set in the whaling village of Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island. The challenge of finding creative design solutions to complex building projects fuels Todd's passion for architecture.

His love for problem solving and architecture developed in a high school design thinking class and further blossomed during two summer internships at local architectural firms. The studio environment was an exciting break from the traditional classroom and he was hooked. His designs for a variety of project types including – education, learning spaces, scientific research, churches all promote and facilitate social interaction, ‘it is the people that make the buildings come alive’. He designs with the core belief that learning extends well beyond the classroom walls and communities are strengthened when they have the opportunity to organically interact.

After graduating from Kingswood Oxford in 1991, Todd earned his Bachelors of Architecture at Syracuse University in 1996. Joining Centerbrook soon thereafter, he went straight to work on projects at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. In 2002 he served as project manager for the establishment of the Hillside Research Campus, the single largest addition to the venerable scientific research institution that was founding in 1890. The challenge was to make the modern 100,000-square-foot facility fit into the historic campus as well as the wooded residential neighborhood.

"Cold Spring Harbor is where I grew up professionally, and I have forged lasting friendships with the people there," Todd says. "I learned not only about designing buildings, but also about how to create an overall sense of place. Because science and learning occur beyond the classroom walls, I strive to make spaces that promote social interaction in every project – whether the building is devoted to research, academia, business, or religion. Fostering social interaction is important in every case.”

Todd has worked on other campuses as well. He served as the project manager for the STEM building and Center for Community at the Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day School, and more recently led the renovation of the Albertus Magnus College student center.

Todd resides locally with his wife, three children, and their chocolate lab. He has volunteered with the Valley Soccer Club and enjoys teaching children the values of teamwork. He stays active by playing soccer, pond hockey, and surfing.

Mark Herter Associate Principal

Growing up with brothers, cousins and uncles in the construction industry, building and tinkering came naturally to Mark. Today he works on his own house and is exploring a new found joy in building dry-laid stone walls.

Mark’s passion for sports and art growing up often involved his family members as participants or portrait subjects. He still pursues these pastimes, playing and coaching sports while painting, sculpting and creating bas reliefs that use LED light to create shifting shadows.

In his first career, as a restaurant manager with Hilton Hotels, among others, he readily appreciated the importance of design in food presentation. His design and construction sensibilities turned Mark to architecture; he earned his Bachelors of Architecture from Roger Williams University and was first in his class. He worked for a small Connecticut firm designing high-end residences before joining Centerbrook in 1997 and being named an associate in 2005 and senior associate in 2014. Mark was promoted to associate principal in 2017.

His portfolio encompasses academic, cultural, laboratory, and commercial projects, among them the People's United Sports Center at Quinnipiac University and two projects at The Hotchkiss School, including a woodchip-burning Biomass Heating Facility. He was project manager for the mixed use Bedford Square in Westport, Connecticut.

Mark chairs the Centerbrook Sustainability Committee, which oversees the integration of green building design in all of the firm’s projects. Centerbrook has accepted the American Institute of Architect’s 2030 Commitment, whose goal is to have all buildings be carbon neutral by 2030. LEED AP BD+C, Mark is a frequent presenter on sustainability; he co-led, with the USGBC, a recent webinar on Biomass Thermal Energy in high-performance buildings.

Mark cites the glass-walled Hotchkiss Music Center as one of his favorites: “It was a complicated project, which I love. Helping design the practice rooms and concert hall in a bucolic setting, at the edge of a golf course overlooking the lake was a great experience. The biggest challenge was integrating a contemporary, glassy building in a Georgian campus. The Hotchkiss music program has blossomed beyond expectation and the continued love of the building shows that we succeeded.”

Jon Lavy Associate Principal

Reno J. Migani Associate Principal

Reno began his building career in his teens, working construction with his uncles. Today he can tackle anything his house – or his parents’ summer cottage – can throw at him, from additions and decks to wiring and plumbing. He knew in high school that he would pursue a career in architecture because it combined his two enthusiasms: science and art.

A semester abroad in Italy sealed the deal: “As soon as I got off the plane, I climbed to the top of the campanile in the Plaza del Duomo, and the view of Florence left me awestruck. I was speechless. I had never experienced anything like that.”

He earned his Bachelors of Architecture from Syracuse University, joined Centerbrook in 1993 after working for several other firms; He was named an associate in 2004, senior associate in 2014 and was promoted to associate principal in 2017.

Reno has found Centerbrook’s eclectic clientele to be a good fit: “Every project here is a new experience, an opportunity to learn and do something different.”

He has been project manager for, among others, the Academic Science & Laboratory Building at Southern Connecticut State University. His academic credits include serving on the design teams for buildings at Yale, M.I.T., Colgate, Amherst, and Pomfret School. His portfolio also encompasses residential, religious, and cultural projects, among them the Nessel Wing at the Norton Museum of Art in Florida, Park Synagogue East in Ohio, and the widely published Lakewood House in the Northeast.

His design/build chair was judged to be the best in the second Centerbrook Chair Workshop. His modern interpretation of a club chair consists of multiple, horizontal, thin layers of plywood - stacked top to bottom with each sheet separated by a narrow uniform gap and laser cut to resemble a topographical model, including a tapered landing zone. He describes his comfy creation as “a chair with many layers and levels, deceptively simple and surprisingly comfortable.”

David O’Connor Associate Principal

Agatha V. Madigan Associate Principal

Agatha had a passion for art and drawing in high school. “At family gatherings I’d be in the corner sketching my relatives interacting with one another, or at other times I would draw the landscape I could see looking out of a window,” she says. “I also needed to know how things were put together, and the details of how they were designed.”

Deciding that architecture was a practical outlet for her creative impulses, Agatha pursued a bachelor's degrees in both architecture building sciences (with a minor in business management) from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Her college thesis focused on furniture design for tight living spaces, and she represented RPI in a furniture design/build competition. In a woodshop class, she also designed a wood-slated, undulating lounge chair that looked like a sure cure for insomnia? (it was comfy).

After stints with architectural firms in Connecticut, New York City, and Washington D.C., Agatha joined Centerbrook in 2003 and has served on design teams for projects on all three campuses of Quinnipiac University. She was project manager for its Health Professions Center, which includes a new medical school that is focusing on primary care. She honed her academic and laboratory design skills working on the School of Public Health at the University of Michigan. Her recent work includes designs for the Goodspeed Opera House, Springfield College and continued projects at Quinnipiac. She was named an associate principal in 2019.

“Architecture is a joy,” she insists. “I’m always learning something new and tapping into things that interest me, like medicine, science, and craftsmanship. Every job presents new challenges, multiple tasks, and there are opportunities to work with experts in various specialties, all collaborating toward one goal. It’s incredibly rewarding when you see people using the spaces and the buildings that you have created.”

Andrew Santaniello Associate Principal

There was a picnic table in the backyard of the Santaniello home in Springfield, Massachusetts, and when Andrew was a youngster his dad would tell him to go out back and pound nails into it. It kept him busy for a spell. Before very long, the composition of the table had changed from wood to metal. The notion of doing a job right started there.

Andrew’s parents came to America from Italy as adults, learned the language, worked hard, and were sustainable well before the term came into vogue. They started their own businesses, tended a big garden, made homemade wine, and sewed his sisters’ dresses. Andrew liked to sketch early on and was into understanding how things went together in metal shop and drafting classes in high school. He took to the digital world right away, in particular the graphic programs.

He pursued his bachelor's and master's degrees in architecture at Norwich University in Vermont, and after working for another Connecticut firm, he joined Centerbrook in 1996. He was named an associate principal in 2019.

Andrew has been project manager for a number of high profile jobs, including the Sullivan Museum and History Center at his alma mater, the national headquarters for Welltower in Ohio, and the Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine in Farmington, Connecticut. This last complex project encompassed 173,000-square-feet and cutting edge research laboratories; it also entailed coordinating design and construction management with a large team of architects, consultants, contractors, and state and local officials. He's now undertaking a very similar design coordination effort as project manager of the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History's extensive renewal project.

Andrew approaches such challenges with positive thinking: “I have learned that the most important thing about getting a project done right is the relationships you foster with team members. I enjoy getting to know people, all kinds of people, and sharing a laugh down in the trenches. And these relationships are important when you are solving problems in the home stretch during construction. You have to be firm, you can’t avoid difficult issues, but you can also be respectful and polite while not taking yourself too seriously.”

Katie Symonds Associate Principal

Even though her parents were geologists, and earth sciences came easily, Katie knew that she didn’t want to study rocks. When her mom, a professor at the State University of New York in Plattsburgh, took her to campus, Katie immersed herself in art books. Inspired by artistic expression, and forever reorganizing her bedroom, Katie realized that architecture was her calling.

In high school, Katie took a class in 3D modeling that sealed the deal. She also became an avid runner and nurtured a passion for the natural world that she shared with her mom. Success on the track, and a desire to combine design creativity with technical rigor, led Katie to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. While there she ran like the wind, earning All American status for a sixth place finish at the Division III Indoor Track Nationals, and ran the mile in 5:10, and the 5k in 17:42. Katie slowed down just enough to graduate with Bachelor of Architecture and Bachelor of Science degrees.

Katie cut her architectural teeth on high profile international projects at EYP, where she served on design teams for U.S. embassies in Panama City, Juarez, Rome, and Prague. She particularly enjoyed working in Rome with its vibrant mix of history and modernity. She grew impassioned about the tension between the built and natural environment, realizing that, like the ancient Roman ruins, beauty endures and is, thus, inherently sustainable.

Katie has an abiding desire to conserve natural resources and to improve the health and well-being of building occupants. Perhaps no surprise given her upbringing, she focuses on the science of sustainability. At EYP, Katie was also a group leader of their sustainability practice group and a LEED consultant

Katie’s resolve to educate clients and elevate her peers’ commitment to sustainability has only increased. She has presented at national and regional conferences, co-authored articles, and served on the Board of Directors of the Connecticut Chapter of the U.S. Green Building Council as Chair of Outreach and Engagement. Katie advances health-based project standards as a WELL and Fitwel accredited professional, and teaches sustainable design at the University of Hartford.

At Centerbrook, Katie’s projects have included Ohio’s Temple-Tifereth Israel and University School, a STEAM Center for Virginia’s Madeira School, the School of Nursing and Health Sciences at Quinnipiac University, and a reimagined corporate office building in Cincinnati.

Jeff Riley Principal Emeritus

Chad Floyd Principal Emeritus

Chad grew up in Washington, D.C., where a memorable childhood was highlighted by service as a Senate Page for the likes of John F. Kennedy. Later, as a college student at Yale, he caught the theater bug, availing himself of directing and lighting design classes at the Yale School of Drama. His interest in architecture was kindled.

After graduating in 1966, Chad shipped off to Vietnam to serve for 13 months as a Marine infantry platoon and company commander. Returned to civilian life, he graduated from the Yale School of Architecture in 1973. Several study grants allowed him to travel to India and across the United States, and his observations on urban architecture and celebratory spaces were published in Architectural Record and elsewhere.

Chad would go on to become an urban designer sought after for his unique understanding of public celebration dynamics. His background in acting and theater production equipped him to make a process breakthrough in harnessing live television to engage whole communities in the planning of urban design projects. Floyd’s interactive “Design-a-thons” freed the typical process from the contentiousness of public meetings and led to a remarkable record of public and private investment in places like Dayton, Ohio; Watkins Glen, New York; Roanoke, Virginia; Springfield, Massachusetts; Indianapolis, Indiana; and Salem, Virginia.

His projects around the country in academia, the arts, and civic architecture include the Palmer Events Center in Austin, Texas; Liberty Memorial in Virginia that honors those who lost their lives on 9/11; Maud Gatewood Hall at the University of North Carolina; an expansion and renovation of the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy Andover in Massachusetts; Krieble Gallery at the Florence Griswold Museum; Almetris Duren Hall at the University of Texas at Austin; new studio arts and athletics buildings at Colgate University; a master plan and two new academic buildings for St. Mark’s School of Texas in Dallas; a master plan and expansion of the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center; a new academic and dining building for the Amos Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College; renovation of the Garde Arts Center in Connecticut; and new and renovated science buildings along with the new Floren Varsity Field House at Dartmouth College.

Recent projects include the new Thompson Exhibition Building for Mystic Seaport Museum; a new Outpatient Pavilion for UConn Health and a new academic building for the UConn Medical and Dental Schools, both in Farmington; a master plan for Charlotte Country Day School leading to five renovated and new buildings; a master plan and expansion for Hill-Stead Museum in Farmington, Connecticut; renovation of McGovern Hall at the University of St. Joseph’s in West Hartford, Connecticut; new academic buildings for Episcopal High School in Alexandria, Virginia, Greensboro Day School in North Carolina, a master plan with subsequent new and renovated buildings for Saint Andrew's School in Boca Raton, Florida; and a campus plan leading to seven new buildings for Bowdoin College’s Schiller Coastal Studies Center on Orr’s Island in Maine.

Chad has garnered 104 awards for design excellence, including the prestigious American Institute of Architects Architecture Firm Award that Centerbrook received in 1998. In 1991 he was invested into the College of Fellows of the American Institute of Architects, and he is also a Fellow of the Institute for Urban Design.

Cassie Archer Senior Architect

It was an idea born of an observation from her mother. A career in architecture. Perhaps, subconsciously, the idea was already percolating. But it was Cassie’s mother who helped her launch the next phase of what has been an interesting life journey.

Cassie was born in Pittsburgh. At the age of three her family moved to Lagos, Nigeria. Her father’s occupation – consultant engineer for an electrical company – required another international relocation when she was 10, this time to Leicester City, England. Along the way, in this early life’s journey through different cultural experiences, Cassie developed her interest in the arts.

In her teens, Cassie delved into photography, and though she may have been shooting whatever she found interesting, her lens often focused on buildings. Reading between lines as perhaps only a mother can, one day she posed the question to Cassie, “Have you thought about being an architect?”

It was an epiphany of sorts. “Architecture? Yes!” A high school internship with a firm in Leicester City formalized Cassie’s new direction. Upon graduation, she returned to the U.S. to pursue an architecture degree at Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston.

Cassie met her future husband, Drew, during their first year at Wentworth. Later, as graduation neared, they made a pact to move together when one or the other found employment. Drew landed a job in San Jose, California, and Cassie did the same soon after they relocated.

With her career in architecture underway, Cassie hit the ground running on a number of projects. Among the highlights during her time in the Golden State was a master plan for a school district that encompassed nine different schools, and a 120,000-square-foot office renovation.

In 2016, Cassie and Drew decided to return to New England and settled in Connecticut. She went to work at Kenneth Boroson Architects in New Haven and he founded a business in Chester that makes leather goods. Cassie primarily concentrated on multifamily housing projects, including an 81-unit, three-building project using Passive House principles designed to achieve net-zero energy efficiency.

Cassie joined Centerbrook in February 2018. She and Drew now reside in East Haddam, Connecticut.

Benjamin Barstrom Director, Graphic Design

It may be said that Ben’s path to Centerbrook was preordained. After all, he grew up in Windham, Connecticut, home of our Frog Bridge, and explored the Ocean House in Rhode Island while visiting his grandparents during their stewardship of the Watch Hill lighthouse. He followed a circuitous path though, via Boston’s Massachusetts College of Art and twenty years in the graphic design field.

Ben knew he had a creative side when as a child he was intrigued by his grandfather's drawings and his parents' divergent penmanship styles. Voted class artist, he designed his high school’s program of studies, drama club playbills, and yearbook covers. Senior year he painted an abstract mural of his eyes, in blue instead of brown, just for fun.

At MassArt, Ben studied communications design, which led to graphic design as a principal focus. After graduation, he stayed in Boston where he nurtured a passion for solo urban exploring. He also traveled to Europe, where he became fascinated by how modern street art was juxtaposed with historic architecture. Ben sought opportunities to advance his skills, designing environmental graphics, marketing materials, and leading in-house creative teams for the commercial real estate companies CBRE and JLL. It was there he kindled his architectural interest by designing building brand packages, investment offering memoranda, and property marketing collateral. He was particularly enamored by the snappy renderings created by the architects to bring proposed projects to life.

As the pandemic took hold, Ben saw an opportunity to make a change, leaving the high octane real estate world to nurture his own business in a small Connecticut town. He purchased an 1855 Colonial whose interiors he delights in transforming with modern elements in patterns and colors he hopes don’t induce his vertigo. A budding chef, Ben cooks a mean pan-seared filet mignon with a balsamic demi-glace and enjoys the precise measuring that baking offers, especially when it results in a perfect brown butter brownie.

René Brakels Senior Architect

The son of a clockmaker, René was schooled in fine detail and precision from an early age.

Growing up in Boxmeer, a city in the southeast corner The Netherlands, René helped his father in an assortment of tasks related to clocks, watches and jewelry. Assembling, disassembling, fixing, cleaning. This kindled an interest in designing and creating things beyond the family trade.

René’s initial exposure to the construction industry came from an uncle who was a builder, and another who was an estimator. He earned a bachelor’s degree in engineering from HAN University of Applied Sciences and held an internship as a carpenter.

With training and experience in the E (engineering) and C (construction) components of the A/E/C acronym, René decided he wanted to pursue the A (architecture). He worked for three-plus years as an assistant project architect in Dublin, Ireland, before crossing the pond to a Manhattan-based, Dutch-American firm.

Eventually he wanted to gain an advanced degree in his chosen discipline, so René returned to The Netherlands and earned a master’s degree from Technical University Delft, the third-ranked architecture school in the world according to QS Top Universities.

Following jobs in The Netherlands and Latvia, René returned stateside and joined RGB Architects in Providence, Rhode Island. But this time, he made the transition with his new family. René had met his then-future wife, Kimberly, a Connecticut native, during his stint in New York City. Together they welcomed a son, Pieter, when they lived in Latvia.

René brought a diverse portfolio of work to Centerbrook when he joined the firm in February 2018. He was the head draftsman and site architect on a seven-story, mixed-use development located in a Dublin suburb; he was the assistant project manager for programming the high-profile Eastern Docklands development in Amsterdam; and he assisted in a contemporary concept design for an 18-story office tower in The Hague. At RGB he was the project manager for a job at the Rhode Island Attorney General’s Office.

Since joining Centerbrook, René has contributed to the New Canaan Library and Bowdoin College Schiller Coastal Studies Center projects. He and his family now reside in Waterford, Connecticut.

In his spare time, René has a special interest in housing the homeless, a cause he picked up in Dublin and has since carried on. He once helped build mud houses in Mozambique with Samaritan’s Purse, and has volunteered with Habitat for Humanity. René is now involved with Malta, a faith-based homeless outreach program in the Groton and New London area.

James A. Coan Senior Director

Jim was inspired by teachers and mentors in high school who taught design and drafting. He proceeded to win a statewide design award and was off to the Rhode Island School of Design, where he earned dual bachelor's degrees in fine arts and architecture. He was the recipient of the Alpha Rho Chi medal from RISD in 1977. A master's in architecture from Columbia followed, as well as a Kinne Travelling Fellowship and a Palladio Study Program in Italy through Pratt Institute.

Jim joined Centerbrook in 1980 as an intern and has been a project architect, senior architect, associate and senior associate; from 1994 to 2005 he was a principal in the firm. He is currently the senior director of architectural practice and building science at Centerbrook, and spearheads an ongoing initiative to advance and formalize the firm’s approach to high-performance building and sustainable design, using the latest technologies, such as energy modeling software and BIM, to predict not only construction costs but also lifecycle expenses, i.e. how much a client will pay to operate a building during its life.

Jim has worked on signature projects here, such Kroon Hall at Yale University, the University of Connecticut Chemistry Building in Storrs, and the Palmer Events Center in Austin, Texas. He is a two-time recipient of the Centerbrook Architects Travel Grant.

LEED AP BD+C accredited, Jim has served on a number of professional organizations, among them the Education Committee of the Construction Institute at the University of Hartford. In 2010 he developed a Sustainable Design Certificate Program for the Construction Institute and has prepared a lecture on Integrated Design Process as an elective course.

In his spare time, he is an avid fisherman and watercolor painter of local scenes and buildings worldwide.

“The current emphasis on sustainability and energy efficient design is the right direction for architecture,” he says. “Scientists believe there is only a limited time for us to change how we are living on this planet before irreparable climate change occurs. Architects can make efficient, responsible buildings that also are beautiful. Kroon Hall is a good example of that.”

Nicholas Ficaro Senior Associate

Nick began his architectural career as a child, drawing house plans for fun and then turning them into LEGO creations. The style wasn’t modern or post-modern or Georgian. And although they tended to resemble the houses on his suburban Connecticut street, there were telling flourishes and special detailing that set them apart.

Seeing the elements of design and construction come together by watching shows like “This Old House,” and taking architectural design and drafting classes in high school, further sowed the seeds of an architectural career. After graduation, Nick enrolled at Wentworth Institute of Technology’s five-year Bachelor of Architecture program, and in the summers he interned for Fletcher-Thompson, a Connecticut architectural and engineering firm. He gained valuable experience in existing conditions studies, design development, and creating construction documents.

In his senior year, for accomplishments within the Wentworth architecture program as the American Institute of Architects Students chapter president, Nick and a fellow student shared the Alpha Rho Chi Award given out annually by the national architecture fraternity. After graduation, he returned to Fletcher-Thompson, concentrating on public school projects from elementary school through college, including a large new junior high school in Camden, New Jersey.

Nick joined Centerbrook in 2006 and worked on the projects at Yale University, Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day School, and Quinnipiac University, including its new medical school, dining hall, and the Rocky Top Student Center on the York Hill Campus. He also served as project manager for the Quinnipiac North Haven Administration building from design through construction.

“Two of my favorite projects that I have been a part of are the Rocky Top Student Center at QU and the Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day School. From Rocky Top’s stone patio that has views of New Haven and Long Island Sound, to its exterior detailing, and its monumental fireplace, it’s a unique project. The extensive use of wood for both structural purposes and fine details coveys a feeling of being in a rustic lodge. While the brick detailing and open classroom layouts of Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day School inspired me to add creativity and flair to the elementary school I would work on during my Centerbrook hiatus”

In 2017, Nick left Centerbrook to pursue another opportunity, but returned to the firm in the fall of 2019. During this hiatus, Nick had the opportunity to oversee the design, detailing and construction of a new public elementary school in South Windsor, CT. “One of my accomplishments during that time away, was being able to deliver the client a unique, thoughtfully designed building that came in under budget.”

Has been a mentor to high school students interested in architecture, construction, and engineering, and continues to mentor emerging professionals in the office.

Chris Hill Director, Marketing & Business Development

Thanks to a liberal arts education and a Connecticut Yankee upbringing, Chris has enjoyed a peripatetic career. It has encompassed two continents, working for a house wright doing historical renovations, running his own car detailing business, and an inside-the-Beltway position that gave him entre to the Oval Office. While earning his Bachelors in Political Science, Phi Beta Kappa, from Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania, he gave campus tours and spent one semester as an intern in the office of United States Senator Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut. After graduation, Chris served for four years as a member of the Senator’s staff, after which he was appointed to the U.S. Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad. This position entailed fact-finding tours of Eastern European nations and negotiating agreements with officials to ensure that historic cemeteries and other heritage sites were being protected – a requirement for admission into NATO.

After globetrotting for several years, Chris and his wife Kim decided to return to their native state. She taught and he went to work for The Nature Conservancy as an Assistant Director of Philanthropy. In 2003 he joined Centerbrook as Director of Business Development with responsibilities for developing and implementing the firm’s outreach and marketing strategies. He also makes the trains run on time to meet deadlines for job submissions. When not conducting, Chris is a voracious reader of historical works and fiction, tinkers with cars, enjoys a wooden kayak he crafted, and takes the family out on the Connecticut River in the boat that he and his father built long ago. “I think the diverse jobs I’ve had share a sense of public service, whether a legislative initiative or preserving wild places,” he says. “I feel that way here, that architecture has an important role to play, that it can make individual lives and society better.”

Kassandra Semënov-Leiva Architectural Designer

Light filtering through iron feathery vines spiraling left and right along the veranda and a splash of blue azulejo tiles on the floor ...

These images constitute a young Kas’s first architectural impressions. Memories from Cuba, the tropical island where she was born. When Kas was three years old she and her family moved to the United States as political refugees, but the early memories of natural motifs, color, and enclosure would stay with her.

An artist from an early age, Kas chose a career in architecture – perhaps surprisingly – just as much for its limitations as for its opportunities. She sees art as a chance to describe possible worlds, emotions, and ideas. Kas’s art portfolio includes everything from watercolors of buildings, to landscapes, and people. But the human figure remains by far her preferred subject. She claims influence from Bauhaus artist Oskar Schlemmer, surrealist Salvador Dali, and Giorgio de Chirico. It’s not necessarily about the objectivity of the human figure, but rather its relationship with the world it exists within.

“For me, creating is like breathing. It’s something I can’t imagine not doing, but I also love the constraints of real world challenges. When you’re painting, it’s very much a free flowing process. With architecture, you’re fulfilling a greater purpose, and you’re hopefully helping people by creating beautiful functional spaces. The beauty of architecture is how easy it is to share it, and hopefully what you design helps make other people’s memories too.”

That philosophy also very much informed her direction for education. Kas earned a bachelor’s degree in architecture from Princeton University, a program known for its strong conceptual teachings. To complement her training, Kas sought out a more hands-on and practical advanced degree experience and attained a master’s from the Yale University School of Architecture.

While at Yale, Kas took Kent Bloomer’s course on architectural ornament, and was intrigued to the point where she interned with his studio for a summer. With her background as an artist, Kas was naturally drawn to ornament. It’s as if her early memories of ornate railings were pointing to this moment.

“When you add detail to space, you embed a sense of care. Through ornament you can tell so many stories, which ultimately should complement the larger architectural work.”

After graduating from Yale, Kas decided to stay in Connecticut. It was an easy decision since she has fallen in love with New England.

“I really adore all of the unique histories the towns and cities around here have. I could go around documenting the ornament of Essex alone and who knows when I’d be done. There is an intense sense of place here. And being able to walk, bike, or take the train anywhere is certainly a plus.”

Fluent in Spanish, English and French, Kas joined Centerbrook after graduating from Yale. She resides in Essex, Connecticut, with her partner Misha Semënov-Leiva, another designer at the firm. She enjoys hiking and other outdoor adventures, reading about ancient Rome, hanging out with her pup Daphne, and baking. Above all else, Kas enjoys her free time creating quasi-surrealist paintings.

Sheryl Milardo Librarian/Product Resources

Sheryl, head of Centerbrook’s Library and Product Resources Department, is unique in the office. No one contributes to as many projects or researches new products as thoroughly. For example, innovations which increase energy conservation and end-user wellness. More than 80 percent of the firm’s jobs – whether great or small, academic or corporate, residential or cultural – require her advice, aesthetic acumen, and her product knowledge and research. Her duties entail assisting the architectural staff in sourcing solutions for finishes and design systems – everything from acoustic, flooring and lighting products, to highly sustainable structural and building envelope materials.

Sheryl joined Centerbrook in 1985 after graduating from SUNY New Paltz with a bachelor’s degree in Italian language, literature, and art history. She spent the next six years in Italy, where she worked as a teacher and translator. Sheryl was fortunate to take a couple of architecture classes at the University in Florence, which enhanced her desire to work in the profession.

“I was always interested in art and design growing up. I loved to draw,” she says. “My mother subscribed to Better Homes and Gardens and I’d pour over the houses, examining the architectural plans to see how everything was arranged. Both parents contributed to my interest in design, art and architecture. I learned from their appreciation for fine quality, perfected handcraft and detailed construction.”

Sheryl has been fortunate in her career to not only work at a place that carries craft and quality as its mantra, but also play an essential role in that effort.

“The great thing about my job is that I’m always learning new things. There are continuously new products and systems and technologies to evaluate, and Centerbrook is doing a wider variety of projects now than ever before.”

Matthew Montana Senior Associate

Matt didn’t have to look too far to find role models. His father worked for the pioneering modern architect Edward Durell Stone in New York City and his mother has a degree in fashion design.

The family moved to South Windsor, Connecticut, where his father started his own firm and his mother designed baby clothing and chaired the planning and zoning commission. Matt worked some summers for his dad, helping to design custom homes, elderly housing, and condominium projects, and spent other summers landscaping or designing and framing custom homes for a local builder. He experienced the building environment from soup to nuts.

Matt earned a bachelor's degree in architecture from New York Institute of Technology, graduating Cum Laude, and was inducted into the honor society in architecture and allied arts. He worked for two Connecticut firms before joining Centerbrook in 1999. He has contributed to academic projects at Quinnipiac University, Yale University, the University of Connecticut, and the National Outdoor Leadership School in Colorado. He is proud to have had the opportunity of working on the 9/11 Memorial, Festival Plaza, as well as Development Services and McCoart buildings in Prince William County, Virginia.

For his Centerbrook Travel Grant, Matt visited Taliesin West in Arizona, Frank Lloyd Wright’s winter home and school in the desert. “I had visited Fallingwater in Pennsylvania on a school trip and just loved it, along with his work in general. The two houses are so different, yet each is so masterfully connected to their respective sites. At Taliesin, his apprentices would come and have to design and build their own housing with local materials, and examples still dot the landscape.”

In addition to hand drawing and Revit design software, Matt is handy with a driver and 9 iron, periodically representing the firm in charity golf tournaments.

Charles G. Mueller Senior Director

Alan Paradis Senior Associate

Raised in the rural Connecticut, Alan was an accomplished “odd jobber” by age 15, working on varied restoration projects from an 18th century farmhouse and Victorian villa to vintage Chevys and BSA motorcycles. He also was adept at abstract painting and detailed pen and ink drawings of the natural world. These talents, and a Swamp Yankee “do it yourself” propensity, would serve him well in his architectural career: he liked to see how things worked by a process he calls “selective demolition.”

Alan pursued his bachelor in architecture with a minor in historic preservation from Roger Williams University, and earned a masters in architecture with an emphasis on urban design at University of Pennsylvania. Between college and grad school he served as president of the 10,000-member American Institute of Architecture Students and sat on the national AIA Board of Directors.

After working for New Jersey and Pennsylvania firms on academic, research and master planning projects, Alan joined Centerbrook in 2006 and was named an associate in 2012. He has contributed to sundry projects, among them: the Ocean House, which involved the replication of a historic resort hotel, the medical school at Quinnipiac University's North Haven Campus, and a new alumni and visitors center at Duke University.

Two of his favorite buildings are worlds apart: Kikutake’s administration building at the Izumo Shrine in Japan and the Biomass Heating Facility at the Hotchkiss School in Connecticut, which he oversaw as Project Manager and which has won several awards, including an AIA New England Honor Award. The building, which has been widely published, has reduced both emissions and fuel costs dramatically for the school.

“I enjoyed working on the woodchip-burning plant because we were designing a place that had a great backstory and, in spite of its utilitarian function, it’s really an elegant building. It also is designed to serves as an ancillary “real world” classroom – it’s not your average furnace.”

Matthew Russo Architectural Designer

Legos and Lincoln Logs. The gateway toys to an architectural career.

Like a number of his fellow designers at Centerbrook, Matt Russo didn’t grow up in architecture. But, in another commonality, he was influenced by those ever-popular building sets, and pop-up books by his favorite childhood author David A. Carter.

Matt and his brother, who later went to engineering school, eventually took things to the next level. At Halloween, they would collect cardboard boxes from a local appliance store to make haunted houses for their garage in Branford, Connecticut.

As he got farther along into school and sports, Matt drifted from the maker mindset, but high school art classes in sculpture and multi-media rekindled an interest in design and he was inspired by a teacher to explore a creative major in college. Harkening back to his youthful building interests, he decided on architecture.

Matt attended Roger Williams University in Rhode Island, where he earned both bachelor’s and master’s degrees in architecture. Along the way, he spent a semester abroad at Barcelona Architecture Center in Spain and supplemented his training with a couple of valuable internships.

Between his junior and senior years, Matt sought out a summer job working in construction in Hilton Head, South Carolina, where his family had vacationed since he was a toddler. He hoped it would be beneficial to practice the other end of the building process, and he came away with a healthy appreciation for the trade.

He parlayed the construction job to an architectural internship in South Carolina the following summer, an experience that Matt attributes with bridging his conceptual design background – at that point in his education – with the more technical work that he’d delve deeper into during grad school.

Matt completed architecture school in 2019 and joined Centerbrook that fall.

Beyond architecture, Matt likes to stay active. He had all three seasons covered throughout his school years playing soccer, hockey and tennis. Going to college, he wanted to continue playing team sports, but didn’t know if he’d have enough time due to the demands of architecture school. He tried out for the Roger Williams men’s tennis program and ended up playing all four years. He enjoyed the experience so much that he stayed on as an assistant coach during grad school.

In addition to tennis, Matt also enjoys traveling and cooking, which provides another creative outlet as well as an opportunity to connect with family.

While Matt is still getting his feet wet as a professional designer, he one day hopes to pursue his interests in urban waterfront design.

Andrew Safran Senior Associate

Andrew has been around, as befits someone who spent his formative years in far corners of New England, from southern Connecticut to Houlton, Maine (near Caribou), after which his family moved south, to Burlington, Vermont.

While earning dual bachelor's degrees in architecture and building science at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, in the slightly warmer climes of Troy, New York, Andrew took a welcome semester abroad in sunny Rome. Then, after working for a firm in Missouri, he and his new bride took an extended excursion throughout Europe: to Ireland and Paris and up the northern coast to Norway, finally into the Arctic Circle via a nostalgic cargo cruise ship, the MS Lofoten. They proceeded to tour the eastern coast of America, camping their way down to Florida, where their savings ran out. Andrew went back to work, for a firm in New Hampshire, before joining Centerbrook in 2007.

He has worked on projects at Quinnipiac University, including residence halls, a wind farm, and a student center. He also served as the co-project manager Academic Science and Laboratory Building at Southern Connecticut State University. Andrew has also coordinated early conceptual energy modeling efforts for Centerbrook projects.

When not designing, Andrew is busy enjoying outdoors activities with his family – pond skating, canoeing, camping, fishing etc. – and working on their circa 1865 home. A boat tinkerer, he has reconstructed a sunfish for his kids. He and his wife Amy are Cub Scout den leaders, and he coaches Little League.

Andrew also designed and built an elegant and highly crafted wooden chair – a chaise longue/Adirondack cross – for the Centerbrook Chair Workshop: “Nautically inspired, my design features boat-like elements. A wavy base, laminated keel, shaped frames, and steam-bent planking come together as an invitation to sit. White oak, both kiln dried and green, sapele mahogany, waterproof glues, stainless steel, and silicon bronze fasteners hold together this outdoor lounge chair. It is designed for watching vessels come and go from your favorite inlet.”

Misha Semënov-Leiva Senior Architect & Sustainability Coordinator

The son of biologists who emigrated from Russia, Misha was exposed early and often to the natural environment that surrounded his San Francisco home. These childhood experiences shaped many of the personal and professional interests he pursues to this day.

“Biology has always been a fascination for me because I grew up with my parents taking me out for hikes, camping, and exploring in the parks of northern California nearly every weekend. A lot of my curiosity and love for all life forms was instilled by them.”

On a parallel track, Misha also developed a youthful interest in design, often sketching vast imaginary cities both for humans and for his favorite animals. He recalls a time from his teens at NatureBridge Headlands, an environmental education center just outside of San Francisco, when his interests in biology and design first began to intersect.

“Working as an environmental educator taught me a lot about how people can connect to place in a meaningful way – our mission was to get Bay Area kids, many of them from the inner city, to get to know and care for the plants, animals, and ecosystems that surrounded them. I realized the siting and design of the campus itself was a teaching tool and an important part of that equation. That became part of my mission: to build buildings that could help reconnect humans with the rest of nature.”

When deciding what to pursue in college, Misha initially chose the path of design, and graduated as the valedictorian of his Princeton University class with a Bachelor of Arts degree in architecture.

“I felt a tension entering college about whether I wanted to pursue ecology and nature or architecture and design. I think my big moment was when I realized they weren’t mutually exclusive.”

Yale University provided the opportunity to study both at the graduate level, so Misha entered the schools of architecture and forestry and environmental studies. He enjoyed the dichotomy of the programs, and the challenge of linking the two when their respective cultures were so unique.

“The design world was all about how things looked and how they were presented. Designers were often ignorant of the science because the field is so focused on image and presentation. In the world of environmental science and ecology, on the other hand, good science wasn’t reaching decision makers or the public precisely because it was not visualized or communicated effectively.”

The lone member of his graduating Yale class to complete the dual degree program, Misha hopes to maintain a symbiotic relationship between ecology and architecture throughout his career.

“I think it’s very important that architects and scientists talk to each other so that design can be grounded in knowledge about nature. Architecture has the power to communicate ecology to people in a direct, emotionally moving way.”

In addition to architecture school, Misha gathered experience through summer internships at design firms in Boston, Miami and New York. He joined Centerbrook full-time upon graduation from Yale.

At Centerbrook, Misha is helping to implement the firm’s sustainability action plan and 2030 Commitment to zero-carbon buildings, and is organizing series of continuing education courses for the office on sustainable design, biophilia, and ecological integration.

Away from the office, Misha enjoys spending time outdoors with Kas Semënov-Leiva – also a designer at Centerbrook – engaging in activities like hiking, backpacking, skiing and kayaking. He and Kas have taken to foraging for different edible plants and mushrooms and they relish incorporating their discoveries into new recipes.

Singing is also an interest that Misha has carried from elementary school musicals to the Princeton Chapel Choir. He is currently a chamber chorus singer in the Yale Camerata. In addition to choral, he also sings and writes other types of music, and is slowly improving his ukulele playing.

Misha and Kas reside in Essex, Connecticut. Together, they curate a blog, The Ecoempathy Project, that articulates their vision for an architecture grounded in nature.

Jake Sandmann Associate

Jake Sandmann came to architecture by way of construction and philosophy. He can swing a hammer while deconstructing the cognitive scientist Daniel Dennett’s views on the compatibility of free will with the natural world.

Jake grew up in Arlington, Virginia, rowing in a “lightweight four” for the Yorktown High School crew team. Following a brief stint at West Virginia Wesleyan College, Jake moved to New York City to attend Queens College, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science with a minor in Philosophy. His high school carpentry experience combined with his environmental strivings as he considered architecture as a career path, leading him to the Parsons School of Design, where he received his Master’s of Architecture.

While at Parsons, Jake became interested in how the identities of New York’s neighborhoods were shaped by the mash-up of modern and historic architecture. He was particularly drawn to Brooklyn, where after graduation he was part of a team at Rogers Marvel Architects that designed a mixed-use complex in Brooklyn Bridge Park. From there, Jake joined Fogarty Finger Architecture, working his way up as the firm’s portfolio grew to encompass commercial office renovations and large multifamily developments. His most rewarding project conceived a low-and-midrise neighborhood in the Inwood section of Manhattan that includes a public library, a preschool, a community center, and affordable apartments. He thrived as he balanced its stakeholder and land use complexities.

When the pandemic hit, Jake and his wife Emily, finding their fourth floor walkup tight on space with an infant and a toddler, decamped from Prospect Park to her parent’s home in Guilford, Connecticut. What they thought would be a brief stay became a permanent move, with Emily (also an architect) keeping her job in New York while Jake looked for one closer to home. Drawn to Centerbrook’s diverse projects and bucolic setting, Jake joined our staff in 2023.

When not running, cycling, or chasing Margot and Hugo, Jake is renovating his quirky architect-designed house to suit his family. His carpentry skills also come in handy maintaining the family’s 16-foot Fenwick Williams wooden catboat, which plys Long Island Sound out of Sachem’s Head Yacht Club.

Millie Yoshida Architectural Designer

Tokyo native Millie Yoshida came to Centerbrook by way of Singapore, Philadelphia, New York City, Dallas, Austin, and New Haven. A former ballet dancer, her path to architecture was circuitous, ultimately influencing and enriching her design thinking.

A self-described “jack-of-all-trades,” Millie was inspired at a young age by Japan’s intricate wooden architecture. As her father advanced his career, her family moved stateside, eventually settling in Manhattan. It was there, after a brief stint tickling the ivories, that Millie was encouraged at age 13 to professionally pursue ballet. She trained at the School of American Ballet and the Joffrey Ballet School, which exposed her to the art form’s physical rigors and technical precision. Training with the prominent ballerina Gelsey Kirkland, Millie danced numerous principal roles, including Kitri in Don Quixote.

When injuries sidelined her ballet career, Millie moved with her family to the Lone Star State, where she completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Texas at Austin. Initially set to pursue a career in the sciences, she studied physics and chemistry. She shifted gears after taking a studio course in architecture when she realized she could explore choreography through the technique and artistry of planning spaces. Finding her passion, she studied drafting technique with John Blood, who collaborated with Centerbrook on hand-sketched watercolor renderings.

After Austin came New Haven, where Millie enrolled in Yale University’s three-year Masters in Architecture program. There she augmented her technical approach with architectural theory, meeting her husband, Mat, along the way. In her third year, Millie took an advanced studio course taught by professors Lisa Gray and Alan Organschi, who offered her a job upon graduation. At Gray Organschi, she explored many project types – from single-family residential to mass-timber affordable housing – and saw them through from conceptual design to construction. Millie is now eager to advance her skills and engage in Centerbrook’s collaborative culture.

Millie might be perceived as a study in contrasts. She dabbles in the violin, has a significant portfolio of architectural photography, and counts Metallica’s “Master of Puppets” as a favorite song. She lives in New Haven with Mat and their daughter, an adorable Jack-A-Poo named Penny.

Tiana Kimball Architectural Designer

Tiana may be the only architect to find her professional calling by way of a Google search. She grew up shuttling between Portland, Oregon, where her father was a chemist, and Seattle, Washington, where her mother was an accountant. Her older brother, a painter of wall murals, inspired her creative side. Living with that motley crew, how could she not be ambivalent about what she wanted to do?

After high school, a friend suggested, perhaps sensing her reticence, that she attend Portland State University with its myriad options. Scanning the list of possible majors, “architecture” caught her eye. After a bit of Google research, she signed up, undeterred by naysayers who pointed out its rigor. Tiana was inspired by her professors and studio reviewers, who she found shared her analytical brain. Once she realized that architecture also allowed her to explore her nascent creativity, she was hooked.

Seeking a path to licensure upon graduation, Tiana secured a position at Lever Architecture, where she built exacting scale models that were so convincing she was hired full-time. She then spent two years as an architectural designer at ZGF Architects.

In the fall of 2020, Tiana drove east on a five-day road trip, armed with practical experience and an acceptance letter for the Master of Architecture program at Yale University. There, she stretched her design abilities while staying true to her analytical nature, honing her drawing and modelmaking skills along the way. Ascribing to the philosophy that “no line is innocent,” Tiana drew exquisite hand sketches during a stint in Rome and later refined her technique on the computer as she focused on scale, proportion, and line weights. In her second year, she was awarded the Gertraud A. Wood fellowship and returned to Europe, visiting twelve cities in just three weeks. Brussels turned out to be a favorite, but it might have been the Belgian waffles topped with candied nuts and whipped cream.

Following graduation, Tiana settled in Guilford, Connecticut, which she loves for its small town feel and ready access to the Big Apple. She joined Centerbrook in the fall of 2023. When not plying her craft, Tiana loves to walk (27.2 miles in a day is her personal best), but now eschews Google Maps for meandering paths and the surprises she encounters along the way.

Viviane Schefers Architectural Designer

Though she hails from Germany, Viviane Schefers can hang ten. She also speaks three languages, knows the ins and outs of a balance sheet, and loves to paint watercolors of sea creatures.

Viviane had a globe-trotting childhood, which took her from Deutschland to Kuala Lumpur, Beijing, and, as a teenager, to Orange County, California. She learned to speak English in Malaysia and saw how rapid development impacted the Chinese capital – her first exposure to how architecture frames the public realm. She also grew to appreciate how experience and perspective are shaped by where people live.

After her high school days surfing the waves of California’s Huntington Beach, Viviane returned to Germany to take advantage of state subsidized higher education. She matriculated at the University of Applied Sciences in Paderborn, earning a bachelor’s in international business. After graduating, Viviane landed her first job in Munich at Rixen Cableway, which invented a water ski and wakeboarding cable system. While there, she art directed graphic designers and photographers as the firm’s creative director. Finding inspiration in that exchange, she resolved to further develop her inner creativity, which led her to Leibnitz University in Hanover. She graduated in 2017 with a bachelor’s and master’s in architecture and urban design.

Viviane began her architecture career as a college intern with Bünemann & Collegen Architekten in Hanover. Following the completion of her first project, she embarked on a journey to Brooklyn. Over the next five years, she adeptly navigated the bustling streets of New York, often carving out time – usually before work – to take the subway to Rockaway Beach to surf. It was during this period that she met her partner, Hanno, a research scientist at the Yale School of the Environment. Things got serious, and she moved to New Haven, earning her certification as a Passive House consultant along the way.

Passionate about how Europe’s progressive sustainable principles advance energy conservation, Viviane is eager to apply her Passive House training in the United States to design energy efficient building envelopes. She also looks to draw upon her business training to manage projects efficiently. When not designing under Centerbrook’s broad roof, Viviane thrives in her East Rock neighborhood, enjoying the “real” bread baked at Atticus and painting marine mammals and – surprise! – little surfers with the New Haven Sketchers.
