Designing spaces that enrich life and celebrate the human spirit is important to Liz Squyer, AIA. She is ever mindful of barriers that may hinder access, growth, and collaboration. Her extensive knowledge of The Americans with Disabilities Act requirements and skill at managing those intricacies have allowed her to complete several accessibility studies for our clients. Liz has been with Architecture Incorporated since 1992 and has worked on a range of projects include the Minnehaha County Courthouse, Prairie West Branch Library, and University Center.
