Katie Stuart

Katie Stuart believes that architecture should serve everyone, which is why she’s committed to engaging people from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. This perspective drives her passion for collaboration, both with design and construction partners, and with the communities her projects aim to serve. Katie understands that the foundation of a successful project often starts long before the first sketches. She is a vocal advocate for those behind-the-scenes contributors, ensuring their efforts and insights are recognized and valued. Her dream project? A space that blurs the line between the natural and built worlds—like trail-side warming huts or visitor centers that blend seamlessly into their surroundings, offering refuge and a lens for observing nature. Her designs would not just complement the landscape but invite people to experience it in a deeper, more meaningful way. In her downtime, Katie loves venturing into the wilderness and immersing herself in nature. It’s her way of stepping away from daily stresses and reconnecting with the wild—a reminder of nature’s unique ability to bring out the best in all of us.
