THE 2007 HC&G IDEA HOUSE
Brian Brady, Brady Design Inc. (Design Director)
Registered architect Brian P. Brady incorporated his business in 1989. Brady's expertise lies in creating traditional, classic residences and designing comfortable, sophisticated interiors. Today, the firm's work is solely residential with approximately 30 percent of revenue coming from architectural commissions and 70 percent from interior design.
Prior to establishing the firm, Brady studied Architecture at the University of Notre Dame and spent a year in Rome learning the foundations of Classical Architecture. After graduating Magna cum Laude with a Bachelor of Architecture Degree, Brady moved to Athens, Greece where he was an intern architect with the International Design Center specializing in embassy and consulate design. This experience involved extensive travel all over the world and, says Brady, "produced a level of international sophistication" for his design efforts.
Returning to the U.S., Brady began a career with the international, award-winning design firm of I.M. Pei & Partners. Working on projects such as the Raffles Center in Singapore, Dallas Symphony Hall and the Louvre in Paris furthered Brady's level of international style and sophistication.
