Samantha Strang

I’ve had the privilege of exploring architecture in a multi-faceted and unconventional way - as a licensed architect, academic/instructor, and international builder. I have worked on a range of projects, from concept through completion, including remote, federal, municipal, office, residential, and hospitality. As an M. Arch Studio Instructor at the University of Colorado and a studio juror at various universities, I engage students in meaningful discussion, fostering critical thinking. Additionally, I’ve travelled to Antarctica twice to physically build and coordinate logistics for the Cape Shirreff NOAA research station.

Given my diverse background, I offer a broad perspective on conceptual, creative, and technical aspects of the practice. My experience spans regional contexts, shaping my interest in contributing to local architecture, craft and experience of place. At Drexel University, I earned my B.S. in Interior Architecture and Design. I then worked on the West Coast, before earning my Master of Architecture in the Mountain Region at University of Colorado. Today, I contribute to my community through a Denver-based firm.

Personally and professionally, I am guided by experimentation, exploration and adventure. I am a Traveler, Hiker, Backpacker, Gym Enthusiast, Reader, Tattoo Lover, Baker, Creative and an Architect. I continuously seek opportunities to remain curious.
