About Us
Skinner & Skinner Architects Inc
Our practice is rooted in timeless architectural principles—natural light, authentic materials and a connection to nature. We design spaces that engage the senses, provide both openness and refuge, and foster dignified living and work spaces.
Established in 1997 under the direction of Bradley Skinner, Skinner & Skinner Architects reflects a distinct architectural voice shaped by decades of award-winning work across residential, institutional, and commercial sectors. The studio’s name pays tribute to the earlier practice of Paul M. Skinner Architect, while its portfolio and ongoing recognition are rooted in Bradley’s leadership and design philosophy.
The studio brings together architects, technologists, and skilled collaborators — each contributing to the delivery of carefully considered and precisely executed architecture.
Bradley Skinner, Principal
Bradley Skinner is recognized for his exceptional eye for proportion and harmony – creating architecture that feels timeless yet finely attuned to the present. Whether working in a modern or traditional language, he brings a rare ability to reinterpret architectural styles with sensitivity and originality, crafting custom spaces that reflect the client’s vision while elevating it beyond expectation.
Known for his ability to truly listen, Bradley understands not only what clients articulate but to what they aspire. This insight results in buildings that are as personal as they are architecturally refined.
Bradley Skinner’s portfolio spans residential, institutional and commercial projects, distinguished by meticulous attention to detail and a deep understanding of space, material and light. His designs are responsive rather than prescriptive—not bound by a singular aesthetic—but shaped by context, history and the unique character of each site.
