In honor of World Architecture Day, we’re putting the spotlight on our team! We had a few of our architects and designers take a turn in the “hot seat”, diving into their personal experiences in this field. From the inspiration behind their work to the best advice they've received, hear from the people driving us forward and creating lasting impact through design. We can’t wait to see what they create next! #WorldArchitectureDay

We want to take a moment to celebrate Sarah Barry for becoming a Licensed Architect! Sarah ensures that each project seamlessly aligns the client’s vision with designs that meet both the functional needs and long-term goals of the community as a member of our Columbus team. Her attention to detail and collaborative approach have been pivotal in the success of ongoing projects such as Pickerington’s new McGill Junior High School and the Miami Trace Wellness Center. “Earning my license was something that I have looked forward to for a number of years, and it signifies the passion I have for what I do. It has challenged me to become a more thoughtful designer, and it allows me to take on more responsibility within the firm while simultaneously serving our clients at a greater capacity. It is an honor to call myself an Architect, and I feel very grateful to all who supported and encouraged me. In the meantime, I look forward to being able to stamp my own drawings soon.”

Congratulations to St. Mary’s on the dedication of your renovated gym yesterday! The excitement among the students was contagious, and the heartfelt blessing from the Bishop represented the importance of faith to this community. We are so proud to have been a part of this day and can’t wait to see what the future holds for this school!

Creating spaces that resonate with communities starts with understanding their needs. We take pride in our collaborative approach to master planning, engaging with diverse stakeholders to ensure every voice is heard. This community-driven process helps us deliver designs that are not only functional and efficient but deeply meaningful.

Please join us in congratulating Jamie Kruer on becoming a Licensed Architect! Since joining the team, Jamie has been influential in creating spaces that seamlessly blend beauty and functionality across each of our studios. Jamie’s versatility in all project phases has been key to ongoing CA work with Ashland Career Center and Covington Cathedral, as well as the construction documents for Columbia Intermediate School. Additionally, Jamie was recently selected for the AIA Vision 14 program, highlighting a dedication to professional growth and leadership, which begins in October. "I embarked on my journey in architecture in 2012, drawn to the discipline by its unique blend of art and science. During my undergraduate studies, I primarily focused on the artistic aspects of architecture. However, it wasn't until my internships and graduate program that I developed a deep appreciation for its technical and legal components. I find immense satisfaction in the diverse aspects of being an architect and believe it’s a field that will always engage me, as there is something new to learn each day. While I am mindful of the potential stress the profession can bring, I am encouraged by the growing emphasis on mental health within the industry. Looking ahead, I am most excited about assuming greater responsibilities, especially reaching the milestone of stamping my own drawings."

Undoubtedly, technology is rapidly advancing and it is important to understand how to leverage it effectively. If you are attending the BASA Fall Conference, stop by to hear Shea and David share their knowledge and how SHP is adapting AI into our master planning process. We hope to see you there!

We can't wait to see the doors open on this new facility!!

We had a fantastic time exploring the unique charm of Columbus, Indiana last Friday for our fall event! From touring the iconic Miller House to walking through the town’s architectural gems, we enjoyed learning the history and culture of this special place. We can’t wait to bring this energy back into our own projects!
