STEVE HUTSON

Principal, Technical Director

Steve Hutson is a Partner at TCA with over 31 years of architectural experience in construction technology and the production of construction documents. Prior to TCA, Steve’s architectural focus was on municipal work, commercial and retail projects, and high-end custom homes. He has been a team leader at TCA since 2001 with senior management oversight on a countless number of mixed use projects along the west coast while assisting in the advancement of office wide architectural standards, processes and drawing disciplines. Over the years, he has grown his position from a singular project focus to be a companywide asset in quality management, construction oversight and mentoring. He has very strong and innate communicate skills which are highlighted in his daily coordination with project teams, consultants and government agencies. Steve is energetic, highly experienced, and a passionately devoted practitioner.

As Director of Quality Management (QM) and Construction Administration (CA), Mr. Hutson has been instrumental in providing detailed project analysis reviews and oversight for all of TCA’s projects. He is responsible for reviewing construction contracts, establishing project schedules, budgets, staffing needs, mentoring project team members and directing projects from Schematic Design through Construction Administration. His highly detailed approach to drawing content, coupled with an ability to respond rapidly to a variety of challenging situations in ‘real time’, makes Steve uniquely suited for this position. He is highly valued internally and externally for his technical knowledge, leadership, personality, clear communication style and the direct approach he brings to the construction process.

As a Partner, Steve assists in setting the direction of the firm. He mentors and trains staff members, leads project and staff scheduling meetings, participates in office management, assists Human Resources with interviewing and hiring, conducts routine employee engagements, directs project management meetings, and serves as a resource for all projects.
