Our Team

Chris Stine, AIA

Partner, Director of Architecture,

Chris has extensive expertise in architecture and has contributed to well over 200 projects at Design Collaborative. More than that, Chris has an eye beyond the technical design of a project. He always takes the time to really get to know each client and learn what their needs and wants are. Chris is a Project Manager on the Workplace team and the Technical Design Director for our office and uses his experience to help clients find their vision. 

Chris loves sports and had a small (but important) cameo in the iconic basketball film Hoosiers. He also once engaged in hand-to-paw combat with a grizzly bear over a 16 oz. steak. Not only did he live to tell the tale, but he enjoyed every bite of that big steak.
