Lyndan Bliss
ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNER
Since day one, Lyndan has been drawn to architecture and design with heavy influence growing up around a father in construction. Many childhood days were spent on construction sites, which sparked that passion early on. Lyndan is originally from Keizer, OR, & relocated to Prineville, OR after receiving her Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Oregon College of Design in 2023. After her studies, she headed to Valencia, Spain, where she completed a two-month internship with 4m Arquitectos. Lyndan’s travels abroad broadened her understanding of design and deepened her appreciation of architecture & travel abroad.
Lyndan brings exciting ideas to the design process and loves collaborating with her colleagues. Her designs are driven through contriving spaces that are community-centered and enhanced by the idea that they are created for the people who inhabit them. Lyndan is always eager to elevate her knowledge of architecture and continue to grow each day.
Outside of work, Lyndan enjoys exercising and spending time with her sister and their three dogs, Griffey, Boone, and Bruce. She enjoys hiking and has a strong love for cooking and traveling. She believes that food is a universal language and that it is one of the best ways to connect with people.
