Matthew Dionne is a Senior Associate and Project Architect at Ennead Architects. He plays a pivotal role in orchestrating the project documentation effort, managing the technical development of the drawings and specifications, and coordinating the work of the consulting engineers. Matt’s experience is deeply rooted in research laboratories, and healthcare projects including New York City high-rise projects. Of particular interest to him is how we integrate holistic and sustainable practices seamlessly into the early phases of the projects he works on. Matt is proficient in Autodesk Revit (BIM) and is a member of the American Institute of Architects and the U.S. Green Building Council.
Lois Mate has applied her vast knowledge of academic, laboratory, and healthcare projects to the planning and programming efforts upon which their success depends. She brings specific experience in programming and planning academic laboratories with undefined user groups, multiple stakeholders, complex programmatic requirements, and site constraints. Her recent projects include the University of Oregon Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact Building 1, NYU Langone Health Science Building, Weill Cornell Medicine Belfer Research Building, New York Stem Cell Foundation Research Institute, University of Michigan Biomedical Science Research Building, and UC Santa Cruz Interdisciplinary and Instructional Research Building.

As a Project Architect at Ennead Architects, Tzara has experience working on various, complex projects ranging from residential/commercial , retail, and healthcare. She believes that an architect has a social responsibility to improve her profession and the communities she impacts as a whole; a project’s positive qualities are not dictated by its budget, scale or location but by the architect’s thoughtfulness, engagement and passion.

Peter Schubert fuses a passion for urbanism with iconic architecture that integrates local culture, history, and context. His aim is to create purposeful buildings and civic places with mutually reinforcing aesthetic and urbanistic goals. Peter believes that the practice of architecture is a process more nuanced and refined than simply shaping buildings; rather, it is the logic and craft of making the public space that surrounds us. He finds meaning in creating experiences that encourage the interplay between formal strategies and civic goals to produce beauty and inspiration in the urban environment.
