Steven is an architectural designer born in the San Francisco Bay Area, with professional training in New York City. His experience spans a wide range of project types, including public parks and open spaces, office buildings, private residences, mid-rise housing, high-rise urban developments, and the renovation of existing structures.
He moved to Japan in 2023 to create work in public space and local community aiding architecture. In New York, during Covid-19 he helped in the re-opening of a 9 acre park, Gotham Park (Brooklyn Banks) and Blue Park, one historic and the other contemporary. He used skateparks as an way to move into his passion for community architecture- creating places where thousands of people can meet, an architecture that continues to give back to the community.
The other projects in his portfolio with various design offices include an innovative custom aluminum facade on 14th Street in New York City, a glass house in Colorado, a house in Austin, Texas, and an office building in Washington D.C, and his first built project, a 3D interior tile. He is currently working on a luxury building in New York City, and projects in Germany, and Greece with Kengo Kuma and Associates.
He is looking to help create work for Japan with other architects in the outside areas of central Japan, whether it be renovating houses, to constructing new houses, creating interdisciplenary skateboarding plazas, and community centers repurposed from old buildings. The goal follows an idea that architecture should be transformative for society, and has the power to enable public space and aid socialization within the built environment.
