“As designers, our biggest challenge is making sense of nonsense. We endeavor to craft legible forms and ideas out of divergent constructs that evolve over time.”
Rich Dengler believes that good design responds to change. His work seeks elegance in the form of adaptability, often enabling an architectural resilience to the flow of time. Rich has been central to designing projects for renowned leaders in education and science. He has designed for adaptive reuse of life science facilities at Johns Hopkins University, University of Michigan, and the University of Pennsylvania. Recent work includes Kiewit Hall; an interdisciplinary home for the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s College of Engineering.
