Q Sterry welcomes Christoph to the Team!
When I met Christoph, he was presenting a project he had designed at the U-O in Michael Fifield’s Residential Bootcamp. I recognized right away that he had something special. His design, presentation, and process was sound, something rare in 3rd year Architectural Design studio. After some casual follow-up conversations, Christoph joined us, full-time during the summer for some real world hands-on work experience. Christoph’s exuberance has been unmistakable, and unwavering. He is articulate and makes well thought through design decisions. Christoph has rapidly proven himself a proficient and valuable drafter, warranting an immediate raise which was retroactive to day one. We’ve sincerely enjoyed working with Christoph and will miss him as he returns to the University of Oregon (Eugene, OR) to finish his last 2 years. We sincerely hope he will rejoin us next summer.
Here is an excerpt from Christoph’s resume for a little more context:
“I am a designer, a self-driven learner, a problem solver, and a leader. Through my education and personal experience, I have witnessed the multifaceted issues afflicting marginalized communities and I know that through collaboration, interdisciplinary thinking, and sensitivity, architecture can improve the lives of countless individuals—both now and in the future. Solutions to these problems are found in sustainable practice, inclusive design, synergistic teamwork, empathy, community oriented conversation, and passionate hard work. I believe in the good of people and the power of making incremental positive change in both my personal and professional life. Beautiful and functional architectural response has the ability to enrich communities and build better futures.” - Christoph Sembach
