Colin Murtaugh AIA

As managing director of Workshop/APD’s Technical Design Studio, Colin Murtaugh focuses on the building science and construction methods behind our work, bringing his intimate knowledge of architectural technology to a wide range of projects. Colin got an early start in construction in his teens, followed by a BFA from the University of Colorado at Boulder and a Master of Architecture from Massachusetts College of Art and Design, and has been an essential member of the Workshop/APD team since 2015. Armed with a deep understanding of building systems and strong technical skills, he works closely with architectural project teams at each phase of the design process to ensure a rigorous and thoughtful approach to complex architectural conditions. Colin is passionate about technological advances and education and has served as an adjunct professor at the City College of New York, teaching BIM software to graduate students. When not focused on architectural design, he can be found at the beach, playing soccer, watching soccer, or discussing soccer.
