What inspires you?
Everyday interactions with colleagues past and present never cease to amaze and exposures me to a level of thinking and understanding that is truly inspirational. Every person’s experiences are unique, so seeing something from another set of lenses helps expand my own understanding and architectural skills.
What is the best part of your job?
The great thing about the profession is the constant evolution. There is always a new challenge, new software or new technique, so you never run out of knowledge or accomplishments to pursue.
What is the most important thing you’ve learned so far?
A spectacular failure is better than the slight failure.
The sky is the limit: if you could design or redesign anything, what would it be?
A net zero Bond villain lair, world domination but an eye towards climate change.
We are honored to share PAYETTE has received two 2026 Green Good Design Awards from The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies—Land’s Sake Farm and The Ragon Institute of Mass General, MIT, and Harvard.
“Green GOOD DESIGN identifies and emphasizes the world’s most important examples of sustainable design and works to develop a public awareness program that informs the general public about which global companies are doing the best job in ecological and sustainable design for our world. Architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning projects, as well as product, packaging, and graphic design projects from over 30 nations were honored with the 2026 Green GOOD DESIGN Award.”
