#26 Patricia Culley: Artistry in Sustainable Architecture

Patricia Culley's architectural journey began in childhood, sparked by her love for art, math, and woodworking. A middle school career assessment revealed that architecture perfectly combined her interests. Working with muralist Doug Cooper at Carnegie Mellon deepened her appreciation for architectural drawing and storytelling through art, shaping her design approach. At BCJ, Patricia learned to navigate complex projects, particularly in higher education, by revisiting core missions and adapting to evolving technical needs. Her passion for K-12 educational projects drives her to create environments that promote student growth and wellness. Patricia emphasizes the importance of collaboration between designers and skilled tradespeople, as well as engaging with nature and hands-on experience. She values "building biology," which considers how materials affect occupant health, advocating for sustainable, non-toxic materials. Recognizing the impact of modern factors like electromagnetic fields (EMFs), she stresses designing healthy, emotionally resonant spaces that connect with nature while maintaining craftsmanship and historical integrity.
