Tom Schlensker's Bio
As a young boy Thomas always knew he wanted to be an Architect. Over his 24-year career he has been involved in more than three hundred million dollars worth of architectural projects throughout Ohio, Indiana, Illinois New York ranging from small residential additions to multi million dollar education facilities. After establishing himself as an experienced architect in such architectural firms as Steed, Hammond and Paul Architects and Williams Architects, Thomas began this new firm to further explore the many possibilities that architecture presents beyond the obvious programs and site contexts while incorporating the special collective ideas of his clients.
Tom began his studies while still in high school in his hometown of Hamilton, Ohio and soon realized that architecture was what he was meant to do. He then expanded his studies at The Ohio State University were design and theory were the primary roles that helped shape Tom’s philosophy of how architecture helps shape and expand our roles as both individuals and as a collective whole. Tom has a hands-on collaborative approach to his design process and along with his extensive and diverse architectural background in educational, recreational, municipal and residential, Tom has the knowledge to design and execute architecturally sound and beautiful projects.
The recent push world wide for new and inventive ways to build environmentally “Green” architecture has not passed the inquisitive mind of Tom. Tom is a LEED Accredited Professional. This type of environmental education and dedication helps bring balance to the rigors of combining both modern technology and the ability to make “Architecture for a Greener Planet”.
