Firm Partnership Initiative

Partner Firms & Advisory Board Representatives

We deeply value the relationship between the UW IDL and our Partner Firms. Through their commitment and contributions, we have made great strides toward our collective goals. These are our current Partner firms and their respective firm representatives.

The UW IDL’s Partnership Initiative formally bridges research at the UW IDL with practicing architects in the Puget Sound Region. The Partnership serves multi-pronged purposes: helping unite practice and academics, collaborating in teaching and knowledge-building, and developing shared research tools and methods. It serves as a model for how academics can bridge research to practice, creating a forum for research-informed practice and practice-engaged research.

If you or your firm are interested in joining the Partnership, please contact Christopher Meek or Heather Burpee.
