About 

Hello!

My name is Nathan Laux, I am a graduate from the University of Cincinnati - DAAP earning my BS Architecture degree and have 3+ years of experience working within a unique variety of disciplines including high end residential, hospitality and large scale wooden coaster projects. I’ve also had involvement with several exhibition displays for major industry trade events including ICFF in NY and IAAPA in Orlando, FL.

During my career I have worked at several offices in NYC. My experience has introduced me to a broad range of projects that have built my knowledge of design thinking, software proficiency and various methods of construction. I bring with me an extensive amount of expertise using AutoCAD, Rhino, Revit, Adobe Suite software.

I am actively pursuing new work opportunities in the Greater New York area seeking full-time employment. Feel free to contact me by phone or email with work inquiries!
