PETER WALLER - AIA, PRINCIPAL
For more than 20 years, Peter has been designing and leading
projects across the state of California. He has primarily worked in the areas of
mixed-use, adaptive re-use, and affordable housing, all with an eye toward
creating transit-oriented developments that build more liveable, sustainable
communities.
In the design process, Peter often focuses his energies on the bigger picture
by using his experience in master planning and large-scale urban design to see
how all the parts of a community fit together. He especially values the
community-based design projects which bring out the voices of the future
residents and neighbors of his projects.
In addition to designing for urban communities, Peter regularly engages in
housing issues on a policy level. Peter contributes his insights and perspective
to debates over affordable housing and urban development and speaks about the
need for transit-oriented development through task forces, speaking engagements,
and pro bono projects with EBHO (East Bay Housing
Organizations) and other advocacy groups.
