Named design partner in 2000, Kevin Burke has worked closely with William McDonough to give form to WM+P's eco-effective design principles in a broad array of project types and scales; he served as co-designer on several of the projects that have become known as milestones in American sustainable design. His approach is driven by this keen interest in place-making through integrated design solutions.

In recent years, Kevin has led the management of the 46-person practice, which opened a second studio in San Francisco in 2006. Kevin has retained his role as a key design leader, heading teams on Fuller Theological Seminary's Worship Center and Library, the American University School of International Service, VMware Corporate Headquarters, among other projects. Kevin has lectured widely about eco-effective design and Cradle to Cradle thinking as the backdrop for the firm's architecture and its work on guidelines, master plans, and other frameworks.
