Ryan Losch draws on a rich background in both architecture and urban design for all his projects. He understands that buildings do not exist in isolation. For Ryan, it is the connection to the surrounding context, whether urban, suburban or purely landscape that helps to shape the way people receive and interact with architecture. Whether working on a master plan or a building project, he seeks to utilize this principle to create spaces that enhance the user’s experience.
At Page, Ryan is a key player in our planning services. He leads complex master planning projects throughout multiple sectors, including projects for public and private institutions, government agencies and developers. The Texas Capitol Complex Master Plan and The University of Texas at San Antonio Campus Master Plan are among his recent projects. These efforts play a vital role in furthering the missions of the institutions. Ryan also continues to engage in architectural projects, furthering his belief that architecture, urban design and planning must work together to create beneficial outcomes for both public and private areas. He played a key role in the design of Dell Medical School at The University of Texas at Austin, the first ground-up medical school built at a Tier One university in 50 years, as well as The University of Texas System Replacement Office Building, a 19-story office facility. Regardless of the project type or scope, Ryan seeks a rich dialogue with the owner and the end-users to ensure that the project, when realized, exceeds expectations.
Prior to joining Page, Ryan worked in Chicago, Miami and Boston on a wide-range of projects both in the US and abroad. His portfolio includes planning and architectural work for institutional clients such as Harvard Medical School. He has completed work for the US military in East Asia as well as a complex governmental high-rise office building in the Middle East. He has also done work in the hospitality, housing and civic realms.
In addition to professional practice, Ryan feels a strong commitment to stay engaged in academia, having taught at Boston Architectural College and Harvard Graduate School of Design. He has also participated in many final reviews as guest critic at various institutions. His own academic career includes a Master of Architecture in Urban Design from the Harvard Graduate School of Design and a Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Miami, where he received the AIA Henry Adams Medal.
