Ann Marshall, AIA

Ann Marshall, AIA, LEED AP, was educated at Auburn University (B.A. Interior Design) and the Harvard Graduate School of Design (M. Arch I). Professor Marshall, principal of her own architectural firm and co-founder of the exhibition design firm Design Division Inc., is a registered architect in Massachusetts with extensive experience in both architecture and exhibition design.

With a wide variety of work in these fields of design, she brings a highly trained human centered focus to her teaching. In addition to many residential, educational, and commercial projects– including one of the first LEED Platinum office buildings in Massachusetts – Marshall’s work includes the design of a traveling exhibit on “Machu Picchu: Mystery of the Incas” for Yale University, including a final reconfigured design and installation of that exhibit to repatriate the artifacts back to Cusco, Peru, and the design of exhibits and interior architecture for both the Catawba Nation’s 7-Feathers Museum in Rock Hill, SC and the recently completed Choctaw Cultural Center in Durant, OK. Closer to home, Ann recently completed the stabilization with additions of the Historic Northampton Shepherd Barn to house large artifacts and diverse community cultural events, and is currently helping to vision the masterplan and exhibits for the David Ruggles Center for Early Florence History and Underground RR Studies. A special area of interest that Ann has begun work on is to reimagine senior communal living and aging-in-place strategies.

Professor Marshall's work has appeared in numerous publications and exhibits.
