Marc Bittinger, Principal and Director of Design, has been involved with the design of the firm’s projects large and small. Since joining the firm in 1985, he has been instrumental in it’s growth and ability to serve various Libraries and Higher Education clients. Marc grew up the son of an architect, coloring beside his father at the home drafting table. His love and understanding of architecture at an early age was realized after viewing old family photos framed by important famous buildings. Marc shares his keen sense of design with owners, users and communities to engage them in the process of creating unique outcomes and achieving project goals in the built environment. He is also involved in many professional organizations serving his community and beyond including the American Library Association, Ohio Library Council, and the Strongsville Chamber of Commerce as well as a past board member of the Ohio Chapter of the American Liver Foundation and Strongsville Education Foundation.
