With almost 20 years of experience in the field, Paul Leveriza’s training in design began in his youth at the studio of his architect-father in the Philippines and culminated at the Graduate School of Design at Harvard University, where he received his Master of Architecture with Distinction. Throughout his academic and professional career, Paul has collaborated with and worked under the tutelage of several award-winning architects, including Cathy Simon, FAIA, in San Francisco; Barkow-Leibinger Arkitekten in Germany; Allied Works Architecture in Portland, OR; and the Pritzker Prize-winning architect Richard Rogers in London.

Paul has been a major design collaborator in significant projects and competitions in major cities in the USA and Asia. His expertise in 3D visualization and rapid prototyping enables both the architect and the client to achieve a deeper understanding of the spatial implications and experience in each project in which he is involved. He has worked on a variety of building types, ranging from single-family homes to massive-scale modernizations of airport terminals. He is fascinated by the manipulation of materiality, light, and shadow, using them as catalysts to link visual phenomenology and experience in architecture with building performance, sustainability, and program.
