Andrew has been with Sage and Coombe since 2011. The scope of his experience has been broad both geographically and typologically. His academic work at UCLA has been presented at Postopolis! Los Angeles in 2009, the 2008 Venice Biennale, and the 2009 IAES conference. He has also taught undergraduate architecture studios at UCLA.
While a designer with Moore Ruble Yudell in Santa Monica, Andrew was the initial designer in the design of MIT’s new Sloan School of Management, completed in 2010. He also was the lead designer for the masterplan of the 400 acre Camana Bay development in Grand Cayman. After receiving his Masters of Architecture at UCLA, he worked on several single-family residences across the United States from New York to California. He also has been a part of Atelier Hitoshi Abe and Johnston Marklee.
With Sage and Coombe, Andrew has been designing the Rockaway Institute for a Sustainable Environment, a non-profit environmental education facility in the Rockaways. He also has designed a new pavilion for the United States Tennis Association in Flushing, and more recently has been managing construction for the Midland Beach recreation facility for the NYC Parks Department in Staten Island.
His diverse background in architecture has been at the service of furthering his understanding of architecture in order to be able to fully realize work that is formally and programmatically challenging from concept to construction. More specifically he is interested in generating layered experiences of conceptual understanding in the expression of form.
