Bill Bondy AIA, LEED AP
Bill understands that the architect’s duty to clarify the design process for the client is not a call for simplification or reduction. It is in service of sustained communication. On projects ranging from all types of education facilities to high profile civic buildings, he has demonstrated his skill as an effective communicator, and in turn has created buildings which themselves speak directly to the aspirations of the communities they serve. Engaged in all aspects of the firm’s work as architect, manager, and construction administrator, Bill is known to our clients as an invaluable source of leadership and expertise.
