Principal/owner Steven Rainville brings the heart of a craftsman, the hands of a builder, and the mind of an artist to his practice of architecture, which spans nearly 30 years at Olson Kundig. Influenced by the legacy of his grandfathers and father, both craftsmen and builders, Steven is drawn to the expression of craft and tectonics, particularly the ways in which buildings come together, and in the details and materials from which they are made. As leader of Olson Kundig’s r+D initiatives, Steven balances future-forward innovation with time-tested methods—honoring established practices while exploring emerging tools and advanced digital technologies.
