Doug received a Bachelor of Science in 1971 and a
Masters of Architecture in 1974 from the University of
Michigan. Following his formal education he spent two
years as a carpenter. His architectural intern years
were a concentrated study of passive
solar/environmental design with attention to
microclimate design, passive and active solar systems
and energy audit calculations. Doug practices
sustainable and “green” design principals and is LEED
AP (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
Accredited Professional) certified.
Doug has authored and taught a community college
course in residential design. He has been a charter
member of three Affordable Housing Councils in
California and Oregon. He designed a sweat equity built
solar subdivision and converted a motor inn into a
temporary housing and counseling center. He has
volunteered design services for playgrounds and a
teen center.
His residential architecture experience includes over
215 residential projects. He has designed over 150 new
homes for private clients, 30 remodels/additions, and
worked on over 25 multi family and 24 commercial
projects. Doug has been the architect for sub-divisions
and planned unit developments. He has been involved
in projects in ten states, primarily in the west, and
licensed as an architect in Michigan, California, Oregon,
and Washington. His resume is available upon request.

trees.

"Working with Doug Laing was very easy and comfortable. He
was adamant that our remodel be exactly what we wanted
while being consistent with the era in which our home was
built. He was very open to our ideas and worked hard to
include our suggestions. We are very pleased with the
outcome of Doug’s work. Thanks for everything Doug!"
