Paul Westlake has participated in the design and management of numerous institutional, cultural and governmental structures. The range of his experience includes master planning, feasibility studies, programming, design and administration.

He has worked on four of the country�s five largest performing arts centers, designed facilities for the New York Philharmonic and Cleveland Orchestra, and designed a cultural complex on the site of the 1969 Woodstock Music and Arts Festival. He has been selected as lead designer for several commissions through the Design Excellence program for the General Services Administration, and serves as a national peer for the GSA Center for Design Excellence and the Arts in the Office of the Chief Architect.
