Jim Landin
Director of Bend
Licensed Architect
Exposed to architecture at a young age, Jim’s appreciation for the trade grew after visiting his father’s projects that were under construction. These experiences inspired his career; today, he serves as the Co-Director of the firm’s Bend office. Jim jokes that during his 40 years as a practicing architect, he’s designed a goat barn with a milking parlor and cheese cellar for an artisan cheesemaker, a 7-story luxury hotel, and everything in between. He enjoys the collaborative nature of design and construction, where he can interact with people possessing diverse skill sets and solve complex issues. Jim has designed over 500 affordable housing units in Oregon and is inspired by residents who tell him their home is the nicest one they’ve had. He prioritizes listening to a client’s needs and implementing design elements that exceed expectations. Outside of work, Jim enjoys spending time outdoors and embracing nature. Every September, you can find him harvesting lavender from his field. Not only is he a talented architect, but he also has the nicest-smelling boots at the firm!
