The Burton Barr Central Library in Phoenix, Arizona, is a five-story, 280,000-square-foot (26,000 m²) building that houses an open, one-acre (4,000 m²) reading room and a single, central open core providing vertical circulation. This central core, the "crystal canyon", is an atrium containing three high-speed elevators and a grand staircase. The building incorporates a roof inspired by Buckminster Fuller's tensegrity structures with motorized louvers on its south face for sun control. The reading room on the fifth floor has skylights that allow sunlight to shine directly onto the top of each corresponding column on solar noon of the summer solstice.[4] In 2008, the library was chosen as one of the Phoenix Points of Pride,[5] and in 2010, it received a LEED Existing Buildings Silver 2.0 designation.[6]

Completed in 1994, the Temple features stone masonry inspired by ancient communities in Israel.[7]

The building takes inspiration from its natural surroundings in Jackson, Wyoming.[8] A skylit atrium with three log columns centers the vertically organized building. The building includes office space, a presentation room, photography studio, library, and lunchroom.[9]

The exterior resembles Nevada’s geography in the Black Rock Desert. The interior features an atrium that extends over four stories and a glass pavilion.[10] The Reno museum was completed in 2003.

Five 1,540-square-foot mixed-use living/work structures are accented on the exterior with a perforated metal gate and bamboo/mesh fence.[11] The building has a sustainable, desert design.[12] In 2005, the multi-unit development received a Citation Award from AIA Western Mountain Region and a Merit Award from AIA Arizona.

Completed in Scottsdale, Arizona, in 1999, the museum is a retrofit of a former movie theater. It is minimalist in design with four galleries. The building has a James Turrell Skyspace Knight Rise. The exterior features the Scrim Wall by James Carpenter Design Associates.

Located on about five acres in Scottsdale, the Henkel Headquarters is a 348,000-square-foot, four-story structure.[13] The “Cafetorium” serves as a meeting point for employees. The building also features a rooftop building. The building was awarded a LEED Silver rating because of its use of thermal and shading technologies, raised floor systems, and indirect lighting in office areas.[14]

Completed in 2009, the 25,405-square-foot branch library is constructed of stacked bond concrete masonry units and glass enclosing a rectangular space with hard-trowelled concrete floors and sandblasted cmu walls.[15] Situated in a suburban shopping center, the construction recalls the tradition of drive-in movie theaters common in post-war American suburbs.[16] The library received the Landmark Library Award in 2011 and an Honor Award from AIA Arizona in 2010.
