How many architects can say they've worked with a president?

RAMSA Partner Graham Wyatt is among the select few; he shared his experience in "Out of Office: Designing Presidential Libraries," a panel at the 2026 Architectural Record Innovation Conference.

Graham recounted working with Former President George W. Bush and former First Lady Laura Bush on RAMSA's George W. Bush Presidential Center at Southern Methodist University.

He described how the President and First Lady brought different priorities to the Center’s design:

Mrs. Bush emphasized its historical narrative, while President Bush wanted visitors to experience the difficult decisions he faced — hence, the interactive Decision Points Theater.

Graham's fellow panelists included Richard Olcott of Ennead Architects, Tod Williams of Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects + Partners, Aaron Dorf of Snøhetta, and moderator Leopoldo Villardi, Managing Editor, Arch Record.

Romance, history, and exuberant detail inspired our design of 200 East 83rd Street on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Responding to Third Avenue’s evolution, and influenced by New York’s richly ornamented buildings, the design incorporates sculptural forms and artisanal carvings. The design contributes to a broader renaissance of modern classical architecture in the neighborhood. Hear more from RAMSA Partners Michael Jones and Paul Whalen.

The sculptural crown of The Bellemont encloses a triplex penthouse and maximizes views and terraces above an important corner on Madison Avenue.

A design study, this sketch explores the crown’s picturesque silhouette, topping a building conceived as a “vertical mansion” in hand-set limestone.

The middle portion of the building expresses our goal of creating a “village in the sky,” a common feature across our residential high-rise projects.

A “sunny chamfered orangerie,” as described by RAMSA Partner Paul Whalen, the faceted bay window evokes a common feature of the neighborhood’s nineteenth-century houses, which inspired our design.

Life moves easily between indoors and out at ‘Ilima and Melia in Honolulu’s Ward Village.

At ‘Ilima, our design brings a resort sensibility to everyday living, with direct views of Diamond Head.

From west to east, the lap pool, double-height lobby lounge, and casual dining area share a strong architectural axis, giving way to the more relaxed setting of the pool bar and infinity pool.

A signature “Dickey roof” shelters the swim-up bar—a nod to Charles Dickey, whose work helped inform our design and research precedents.

Project led by Johnny Cruz and Paul Whalen with Hernan Chebar, Luis Arturo Corzo, Mario Cruzate, and Ian Lauer in partnership with Howard Hughes Communities and Discovery Land Company
