Michael Gamble is a registered architect, director of the Master of Architecture Program at Georgia Tech’s School of Architecture, and creative director at Gamble + Gamble Architects in Atlanta. His design-driven research operates at a variety of scales, from house to city, with emphasis on innovation, alternative energy, and building technology pursued within the context of a larger concern for the creation of healthy well-conceived design and scholarship.

Michael was the first point of contact for the $30 million Living Building gift, a.k.a. Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design (KBISD), and actively participated in pre-planning and fund acquisition, design competition and team formation, all the way through building execution, implementation, and certification. He also led a series of interdisciplinary design studios that paralleled the effort and chaired the Academic and Research Council connected to the project. He is co-author of the novel organizational structure of the living building workgroups, now tested, and currently serves as chair of the KBISD advisory council and leads the Living Building Pilot Project Program, comprised of faculty, researchers, and students from across campus, now in round three of funding.

Michael’s research has received grants from The Alcoa Foundation, The Kendeda Foundation, Center for Quality Growth and Regional Development, the National Endowments of the Arts, and received First Prize for Research in an international competition sponsored by the Environmental Design and Research Association. Gamble has published essays on the design of the public realm in Harvard Design Magazine with W. Jude Leblanc.

Michael Gamble founded Gamble & Associates in 1993 and focused on high end residential projects.
