Dan Welch- Dan received his Master of Architecture degree from the University of British Columbia, CPHC from the Passive House Institute U.S., and has called Bellingham home for nearly twenty years. Driven by strong ethics of environmental and social equity, he enjoys synthesizing client goals, clean aesthetics, and rigorous building science into beautiful and cohesive projects.

Zach Jorgensen- Zach is living out his dream of calling the northwest home after falling in love with Bellingham as a youth. An avid bike commuter, Zach’s passion for architecture and commitment to place is revealed though his focus on sustainability and human scale urbanism. Zach holds a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Washington with an emphasis on materials and fabrication.

Jorden Frazin- Jordan holds a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Oregon and is currently an intern Architect at [bundle]. His experience as a Certified Passive House Consultant (CPHC) permeates his understanding of the built environment, where he is most inspired to create durable, healthy buildings which maximize connection to their surrounding landscapes, resources, and communities. He believes that the best projects encourage their occupants to participate in these places and concepts in readily tangible ways, and as such, his professional interests spill over into the realms of land planning, permaculture and ecology.

Nate Simpson- Nate graduated with a Master of Architecture degree from Norwich University in Northfield, Vermont. He is a Vermonter but has called many parts of the west home over his life including California, Colorado, Montana, Idaho, Utah and Washington. He has worked as a timber framer, bike mechanic, cook, and as an agent of the snowboard industrial complex. Nate is interested in the overlap of high performance and natural materials, is a sucker for stylistic contrast, colorful designs and loves exposed honest structure. Nate hopes to design buildings that need less, are made from materials that matter and help create connection between people and the earth.
