Greetings. My name is Nathan Lambdin, and LAMB is my one-person, multi-faceted design studio. I offer concept to completed works in architecture, interiors, place-making/public art, and single-edition furniture and objects. Since these endeavors are inherently project-based, I can work solo or build custom teams with fantastic folks to suit the circumstances of your unique needs.

After fifteen years of working on big buildings with clients around the country, I'm excited with LAMB to focus on smaller-scale projects such as private residences and commercial spaces in the Pacific Northwest. I'm bringing my experience and interest in design, art, and craft to the foreground while partnering with highly talented builders, makers, and thinkers.






Nathan Lambdin found his way to architecture after a ten-year career in graphic design and a big move across the country. Seeking west coast dreams, he traveled from his home in Richmond, Virginia to Seattle, Washington, where he studied architecture and found a love for the built environment. His interests and practice overlap the fields of architecture, art, and furniture. A maker and artist at heart, you can check out his most recent sculpture here.

Nathan is a licensed architect in Oregon and Washington and is waiting for a great opportunity and reason to get licensed in California. Hint! Prior to founding LAMB, he worked locally and nationally at Lever Architecture (Portland, OR) and with renowned architect Peter Bohlin (Bohlin Cywinski Jackson, Seattle), known for highly crafted residences and the first series of Apple stores such as the all-glass "cube" in New York.
Lambdin received a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Washington in 2009 and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Virginia Commonwealth University in 1996. He was awarded the Valle Scholarship at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Copenhagen for research into spatial influences on the perception of contemporary art.
