Starting from a childhood Lego block obsession, Tyler has built a design career focused on finding the balance between beauty and function. He finds his greatest achievement in projects that satisfy his “people first” philosophy – buildings that are not only beautiful, but that also support user needs and tell a compelling story. Particularly interested in the science of how we learn and grow creatively, Tyler’s most recent design work has focused on educational environments that push the boundaries of 21st-century learning models.
