Chuck Davis, FAIA
Chuck shares his insights about his early years with pioneer Joe Esherick, working with David Packard on the design of the Monterey Bay Aquarium and his post-partum blues, collaborating with clients, and passing the torch to a new generation of leaders.
Chuck enjoyed a long career as a partner in EHDD, a fabled Bay Area architecture firm. A Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, Chuck is the 2003 recipient of the Maybeck Award, the AIA California Council?s highest honor.
Chuck's design for the Monterey Bay Aquarium revolutionized aquarium design and was awarded the AIA 2016 25-Year Award. Its living connection with the waters of the bay creates an unparalleled experience for both scientists and visitors. It?s also a technical tour de force.
