Patrick Farley

AIA/LEED BD+C

My experience covers a broad range of project types, including single family & multifamily residential, mixed-use, cultural, retail, corporate, commercial and environmental education facilities.  I have served private clients, non-profit organizations, municipalities, the federal government, as well as international interests in Haiti, West Africa and Central America.  

My background includes sustainable development, affordable housing, master planning, landscape design, permaculture design, solar energy systems & net-zero-energy building (NZEB) design and alternative/natural building methods (i.e. strawbale).  I am a Certified Virginia Master Naturalist, which entails voluntary community service and educating the general public around conservation and stewardship of Virginia's natural resources; I am also currently in training as a Richmond Tree Stewards volunteer. From 2010 to 2018, I lead a design-build team in delivering over $10 million in construction services, thus I also bring a wealth of builder/contractor experience into my process as an architect.  My 30+ years of practice was preceded by studies at the University of Virginia, where I earned my B.S. in Architecture (1988) and my Master of Architecture (1993).
