ben brimer - project manager
From an early age, Ben's passion for the creative arts found expression through drawing, painting, and music making. Visiting a Frank Lloyd Wright house at the age of 11, he knew architecture would be his calling.
A native of the Bull City, he received his Bachelor of Architecture degree at Tulane University, where the elegance and vibrance of New Orleans came to influence his creativite work. While playing regular gigs as a jazz pianist (and consuming plenty of po’boys, gumbo and beignets) he helped design and build a Lower Ninth Ward home that earned national news coverage when it became the first home of an unhoused New Orleans native.
Ben was called back to Durham by his deep-rooted love for his native state, and today his love of beauty and culture across all mediums continues to inspire his work as an architect.
