Experience

​

Anthony’s wide range of experience incorporating the cohesive melding of architectural interiors and environmental graphics design provides a broad platform for a variety of projects completed throughout the United States. Some of his most recent projects include the adaptive re-use of a 180,000 square foot, former Post Office Distribution warehouse into a light-filled, lively and welcoming call center for BlueCross BlueShield in Abilene, Texas. The dynamic integration of architecture, lighting design and environmental graphics is on full display at the multi-building, 240,000 square foot space that zpd+a designed for Health Care Service Corporation’s offices in Naperville, Illinois,  creating a captivating, powerful corporate interior environment. Anthony also led zpd+a’s project team of architects, structural, mechanical and lighting design engineers on the award winning Sauk Village Town Hall; a unique structure that features an exposed, heavy timber, inverted king- post roof truss, accented by a light-filled, circular banding of clerestory windows.
