Greg Mottola
Partner & CEO, FAIA, MRAIC, NCARB“I’ve always felt that great architecture comes from a deep understanding of place and the people you’re designing for. Balancing rigor and intuition—being curious, asking questions, and striving to create spaces with emotional power—is an approach deeply ingrained in the work Walker Warner does.”
For more than three decades, Greg has shaped a human-centered vision of architectural leadership—one grounded in empathy, curiosity, and the belief that great design begins with listening. As a former Partner at Bohlin Cywinski Jackson, he views architecture not merely as the act of building, but as a means of forging deep, lasting connections between people and place.
Trips to New York City as a child sparked his fascination with the built environment and the quiet power of everyday experiences. That sense of wonder continues to inform his work, which is rooted in context and guided by the idea that the most enduring spaces are those that move us—functionally, emotionally, and over time.
