Deirdre Stearns

AIA, NCARB, LEED AP BD+C

Senior Associate, Director of Sustainability

Deirdre has experience in retail and mixed-use design based primarily in Los Angeles, California. Her past experience includes retail projects domestically and internationally, with a focus on design. Her responsibilities have included early conceptual design through construction administration. Deirdre’s projects have taken her all over the world, most notably when she lived and worked in The Netherlands for a year. She has spent time in Canada, China and Thailand for project workshops. Deirdre loves creating spaces for people and between the design aspects and technical components, finds architecture to be an extremely rewarding career. She also enjoys talking to kids about the profession because she distinctly remembers the excitement of designing her own “dream home” in elementary school.
