Stuart Plimpton, Assoc. AIA, started as an Architectural Intern in our office in the summer of 2021. He transitioned into a full-time Architectural Graduate upon graduating in May 2022.

Stuart is primarily responsible for assisting with the architectural design on all assigned projects and contributing as a key member of the project team. His tasks include collaborating with engineering consultants to complete construction documents, managing bidding and negotiations, overseeing contract administration, and handling project closeout.

He assists in the creation and development of 3D-rendered models for the firm’s projects. Stuart is also skilled in using our firm's OMTech Laser Engraver Cutting Machine. He laser-cuts scaled site and space planning tools that enhance client engagement in the early design stages by offering tangible models for easier visualization of design concepts. 

Stuart is currently in the process of completing his architectural registration exams and is accruing the required hours to become a fully licensed architect.
