Amy Shuster

Senior Designer

I am an architectural designer with over three decades of experience creating educational environments that inspire and connect communities. I enjoy leading projects from concept through construction, combining thoughtful design with technical precision while always keeping the students, educators, and communities who use the spaces in mind. I am passionate about sustainable design, client collaboration, and engaging with the communities we serve to create schools and learning environments that are functional, welcoming, and enduring.

I love exploring how site, materials, and context can tell a story and bring a sense of place to every project. The most rewarding part of my work is seeing how our designs positively impact the daily lives of students and teachers, fostering learning, connection, and growth. I am energized by working with collaborative teams and believe that great educational design happens when creativity, care, and community come together.
