Amanda Loper, AIA, LEED AP, is a Principal at David Baker Architects, a collaborative architecture and urban design firm based in California and Alabama. With nearly two decades of engaged architectural experience, Amanda focuses on the big-picture potential of sites as well as overseeing the details that create unique built environments. Amanda established DBA_BHM—the firm’s Southeastern studio in Birmingham, Ala.—in 2016, drawing on more than 10 years experience designing urban infill housing, large-scale framework plans, and housing policy in the San Francisco Bay Area. Amanda holds degrees in both Architecture and Interior Architecture from Auburn University and is an alum of Rural Studio. She recently co-authored 9 Ways to Make Housing for People, DBA’s framework for community-forward design, and she writes and lectures frequently to bring social awareness to issues of housing and density within the urban setting.
