Paul Whalen
Paul Whalen, FAIA, Partner at Robert A.M. Stern Architects since 1989, joined the firm in 1981. He has been responsible for the design and management of projects ranging from apartment buildings to country clubs, hotels, institutional buildings, and large-scale planning projects. Mr. Whalen was partner-in-charge of two of the most influential planning projects of our time: the new town of Celebration, Florida, and a plan and guidelines that revived the theater block of New York City's 42nd Street, which won a 1999 Honor Award from the American Institute of Architects. His 450,000-square-foot mixed-use retail and residential urban infill project in Arnhem, the Netherlands, won a 2006 Charter Award from the Congress for the New Urbanism. Internationally, Mr. Whalen has planned seaside resorts in Germany, Brazil, the Canary Islands, Croatia, Cyprus, the Bahamas, Jamaica, and Portugal. His current planning projects include a two-million-square-foot high-rise garden suburb in Xiamen, China.
Douglas Wright
Douglas C. Wright Architects
DOUGLAS WRIGHT founded the firm in 2010 and personally directs the architectural work and designs. Throughout his career, he has designed and overseen the administration of a broad range of projects including residential estates and their master plans, vacation homes, apartments, country clubs, developments, and boutique hotels and resorts. Growing up in an historic home introduced Mr. Wright to fine architecture built for a specific setting. Travel and education nurtured a lifelong interest with subsequent bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Yale and the University of Texas at Austin. Prior to forming Douglas C. Wright Architects, Mr. Wright was a partner in Miller & Wright Architects directing much of that firm’s work, and a principal at Hart Howerton Architects and Planners in New York leading teams on major residential, country club, and boutique hotel projects.
