Peter Damsgaard
Director of Design, Principal
Peter brings more than 13 years of professional experience and an extraordinary collaborative approach to his clients. He is responsible for stewarding a thoughtful design process throughout the firm and working with local community leaders. He also leads the firm’s continued education efforts for staff to ensure the team remains at the forefront of diverse architectural practices, sophisticated composition, and deep insight into interdisciplinary design.
He has worked on several notable award-winning projects during his time with the firm, including Notre Dame De Pere, Cedarburg School District High School, First Immanuel Lutheran Church & School, and more. He is active in the community serving as the Trustee at Large and Chair of Facilities Task Force with the Milwaukee Art Museum, Bridge Committee Member with the Sharon Lynne Wilson Center, and Board Member with the Wisconsin Museum of Quilts & Fiber Art.
Growing up in Northern Chester County, Pennsylvania, approximately 40 miles west of Philadelphia provided a unique landscape and introduced me to numerous historic structures, a rich design history and an active preservation community. My exposure to this unique environment at a young age ignited a natural curiosity and passion for architecture.
