Sam Kraft

Principal

Sam was an elementary school teacher in New York City when he decided to go back to school for architecture.  He believes that similar to a well-run classroom, a successful architectural project is as much the result of clear communication and sharp organization as it is passion for the beauty and ideas.  He teaches a large intro to architecture course in the UW Department of Architecture and is an active volunteer in his community. Sam studied history at Bard College and holds a Master of Teaching from Pace University and a Master of Architecture from the University of Washington.
