About
My name is Braden King and I’m a Design Professional II at Overland Partners in the Sports and Entertainment group. I have a passion for design as well as community. I have many hobbies including painting, guitar, reading, hiking, skiing, mountain biking, fishing and all things outdoors.
I spend a lot of time with people. The architecture studio can be a social place, and I involve myself with community whenever I can. I am currently working towards my Masters in Christian Leadership at Dallas Theological Seminary in my free time.
manifesto
Architecture is about creating spaces that improve the environment in which life is experienced by the people that inhabit it.
The beauty, order and function of our creation should image the beauty, order and function of God’s creation.
Architecture is about people not projects. It is our duty-- our responsibility-- as designers, to mold the built environment in a way that best facilitates human flourishing.
