Laura Pirie, AIA, who for over 28 years has designed and implemented thoughtful and integrated built environments, is the principal of Pirie Associates Architects. Her work across the country includes extensive, award-winning experience with museum, performing art, institutional, commercial/retail, and residential structures, as well as community visioning and urban design.
Laura's work is driven by her passion to empower people to live a full and meaningful life, which she does through Pirie Associates and Conscious Pioneer, an organization she founded and leads. Her belief that the built environment has the ability to support aspirations and enhance quality of life can be discovered in the remains of ancient civilizations.
With Conscious Pioneer, Laura leads groups to explore a purpose-driven life by experiencing ancient civilizations' intentionality, connection to nature, and the places they made. Her deep understanding of these practices is reflected in the process and projects of Pirie Associates.

Services
Architecture has the capacity to enrich our lives and embody our aspirations.
We design environments that become collaborators in life: encouraging inhabitants to live more fully, work more authentically, and play more freely.
We are attracted to stories: stories of human being.
Stories of why people, enterprises, and communities do what they do, what they value, and how they live.
We listen deeply to stories because through tone and nuance, stories reveal aspirations.
Like good biographers, we shapeshift our awareness to grasp the details which allow us to design environments for our clients - not for us.
