Key Personnel

Eric L. Rosen, AIA

Founder, Principal Architect

As a kid, Eric found himself lying on the floor, drawing house plans and imagining spaces. This early interest in architecture led him to pursue a career in the field, earning a Bachelor of Architecture degree from the University of Southern California in 1985. Eric has since gained extensive experience in the industry, leading to the establishment of Eric Rosen Architects in 1992. His design philosophy is deeply rooted in the belief that architecture should transform experiences, with a strong focus on the experiential, material, and contextual aspects of design.
