Moving Forward

Todd Lien, Partner

The practice of architecture attracts unique individuals who are creative but also logical; people who can dream big and push the boundaries, yet are firmly rooted in the realities of scope, budget, and quality. At VLK, we share a passion for what we do, and this passion is what keeps our firm moving forward. Our profession and our practice evolve every day. To create a more advanced, intentional research-based approach to the design of our clients’ educational buildings requires diverse teams. All VLK team members wear many hats in the multitude of tailored processes our firm employs in all of our work, enabling our firm to create innovative educational environments and to advocate for public education on many platforms.
