Introduction
I am a registered architect with substantial
experience in client and community service,
design creativity across a wide gamut of project types, team and corporate management,
and servant-style leadership in a project and
management context. In addition to my professional capabilities, my MBA experience
provides an uncommon perspective on practical process, management, and leadership
practices.
The works presented in this portfolio reflect
projects over a twenty-year professional career with a particular focus on educational,

The University of Texas System identified an urgent need to upgrade an original building on its
Dallas campus - The Founders Building, a 106,000
sf structure built in the 1960’s. The University set
programming objectives for an adaptive reuse of
this existing wet lab facility.
The University’s operational goals were to maximize use of space in a building that had limited efficiency because central utility corridors occupied
each floor, and to transform the building into a student/faculty hub for undergraduate teaching.
The new design developed new HVAC systems on
the roof that feeds through the building, thereby
21
MICHAEL VOIT [architec t]
eliminating utility corridors on the floors and maximizing available classroom space.
The design enhanced the building’s appearance
with a new entry connection to the east, which
provided new student gathering spaces that overlook the building entry and the mall. The project
also provided new classroom space, faculty office
suites, computer laboratories, and general physics teaching laboratories in a totally new environment.
The exterior is further enhanced by the use of
multi-color LED lighting which is used to announce
campus events and sports victories.

The twenty-one acre site for this new campus presented two principal challenges. First, a Federally
certified Wetland and Waters of the United States
flow through the center of the site, and second,
the grade rises over one full story toward the
south. The design team worked with the Corps of
Engineers to preserve the wetlands, and incorporate the natural grade changes. Overlooking the
wetlands, the school allows the natural heart of
the site to form an integral part of the children’s’
education. The school was designed to incorporate the team concept of teaching using pods of
classrooms. Each pod contains four classrooms, a
science classroom, and dedicated locker vestibules
and a Commons classroom that functions as a
computer lab. Six pods are located on each of two
levels, allowing separation by grade level. A circulation spine borders the pods with expansive views
to the wetlands. A one story building on the southern portion of the site serves as the public entry.
It houses the cafeteria, media center, administration, and arts/music classrooms, and is connected
to the classroom building by an enclosed bridge
spanning the wetlands. The gymnasium and locker
rooms are in a third building terminating the north
end of the spine.

high school productions and performances and
supports meetings and gatherings for the larger
community. The Center seats 1,100 and features a
40 seat orchestra pit.
Woodgate has the form of a long bar. Each grade
occupies its respective side of the bar. The cafetorium and library radiate out from the center of the
bar. Administration occupies a circle at the center
of the bar between each grade. Banded brick of
different sizes provide a sense of scale and drama
to the exterior. Bold yellow canopies and green
columns provide further character and identity.

The Lamplighter School is a highly respected private school in Dallas, Texas. The original plan was
developed by Architect O’Neil Ford and features
low height, small scale buildings, classroom pods,
and a connection to nature and landscape.
The school features two unusual features which
are very important to the school: a barn and animal pen for a cow, pigs, and chickens, and a reading “well” in each classroom where kids and teacher sit together in a tiered depression to read and
discuss material.
The Facility Study explored existing facility capacities and how the classrooms and/or number
53
MICHAEL VOIT [architec t]
of classrooms could expand to accommodate additional students in a manner sympathetic to the
original plan.
The study prepared site and plan drawings to illustrate design options. In addition, charts and
graphs were created to communicate quantitative
data.

Stonebriar Church is a fast growing community
in Frisco, Texas. A new 3,000-seat worship center is organized around an atrium and fellowship
space where the congregation can gather before
and after worship. Designed in the Romanesque
style, the fundamental concept of the design is of
a contemporary church that conveys the character
and feeling of more traditional churches. Despite
the size of the facility, traditional forms and details
such as gabled roofs, arched windows, and stone
accents provide a sense of scale and character often missing in large-scale theater style churches.

to support the expansion.
The second phase, 2-story 60,000 sf children’s
education building features 12 Nursery rooms,
19 Early Childhood rooms, an Indoor Play area,
a central assembly space, a new playground,
electronic check-in service hubs and a separate suite to serve children with special needs.
Wide corridors, conducive to both circulation
and gathering, support the addition and allow for

MICHAEL VOIT [architec t]
The Lovers Lane United Methodist Campus consists of modern style buildings grouped around a
central courtyard. Several separate components
modernized and improved the campus. The centerpiece of the project was a new hospitality corridor which serves as a gathering space for the
congregation and a connector to various buildings.
Alcoves for seating and display open onto gardens,
with a central gathering space located across from
the Sanctuary. A new administrative office suite
was relocated above the hospitality corridor,
allowing room for the expansion of the nursery,
children’s education and adult Sunday School
classes. The Sanctuary renovation included several
improvements, including sightline modifications
to the Chancel and Pulpit, improved lighting and
sound, and the installation of a new video system
for Image Magnification. On the north end of the
hospitality corridor is the new Shipp Chapel. Designed to seat about 300 people, the chapel was
designed for both music and worship. Key features
include a new pipe organ and stained glass windows. The entrance to the Shipp Chapel opens
onto the Shepherds Memorial Garden, providing
space for meditation, outdoor gathering, and a Columbarium.

The Episcopal Church of the Incarnation is a very
traditional neo-gothic church in Dallas, Texas. The
campus is nearly ninety years old and characterized by brick and cast-stone tracery and arches.
The church needed additional education, music,
and administration space. Furthermore, brides
needed a covered path to the front of the church
to facilitate weddings.
OFFICE
COUNSELOR
Interior renovations incorporated the gothic style
in the interior and erased signs of dated and tired
renovations from the early ‘70’s.
The new arcade springs from the character of the
existing church. Highly detailed and decorative
arches connect an existing church entrance to a
newly created opening at the church narthex.
The addition is small but provided additional space
and elevated the character of some older, flatroofed buildings which did not maintain the gothic
style of the church. The addition wrapped around
the east facade and a new slate roof and parapet
was developed over the existing structure.

Preston Road Church of Christ acquired an adjacent property and desired a new campus master
plan which connected a new Family Life Center to
the existing facilities. After meeting and planning
meetings the master plan included a space utilization study of existing spaces, and space program
for expected growth, traffic and parking analysis.
The Family Life Center expansion expands the
church facilities to the north. The addition includes a multi-purpose fellowship hall and a
kitchen opening onto a new two story commons
that becomes the central circulation point for the
church. Also in the new program are spaces for
preschool, elementary, and youth. The key space
65
MICHAEL VOIT [architec t]
of the new addition is the central spine. The vaulted two-story space creates a new gathering space
for the church community - a place to share coffee, greetings, and conversations.
The exterior design complements the existing facility. A corner tower marks the intersection and
announces the once hidden church to the community.

Completion Date

Munger Place is both old and new. While the
Munger Place Church building is approaching 100
years old, a local church wished to create a new
church experience focused on community and
music. Renovations were needed before new elements could be introduced to bring the church
back to life.
The client did not want a sanitized new church.
Keeping a sense of age and character was important. Careful and select renovations restored the
facility. Elsewhere, casework and paneling were
re-purposed to create coffee bars and new hall
counters. Aged plexiglass was removed from the
beautiful stained glass to allow the beautiful light

MICHAEL VOIT [architec t]
to again enter the sanctuary. New administrative
and children’s facilities were created in the bottom
floor.
Suspended lighting trusses and linear array speakers bring a contemporary but function edge to the
space. A new rear projection screen was created
within the organ chamber. Accessibility issues
were addressed in the renovation.

the space is used for community functions including tables and displays for various church missions.
The focal point of the Gathering Space is a labyrinth, a 40-foot diameter circular pattern, which is
cast into the floor using a variety of colors of epoxy

The project started with a phased master plan for
this traditional Catholic Community. The design
team worked closely with the Pastor, planning
committees, and nearly 20 parish organizations to
define the vision for the Community and develop
a plan for improvement and growth.
Key to the success of the master plan was the
careful coordination between the needs of the
Parish and those of the School. Although one
entity, they have separate needs. The master
plan developed plans to give the School greater
identity, security, and space while allowing growth
and greater identity for the Catholic Community or
Parish functions. After completion of the master
plan and initial fund-raising, work began on the

MICHAEL VOIT [architec t]
Starting with a comprehensive, phased master
plan, the design team worked closely with the
Pastor and planning committees, to define the
vision for the Community and develop a plan for
improvement and growth.
The master plan focused on current utilization
of the existing facilities, the capacities of the facilities, and methods of growth. The first design
phase included renovations to the children’s Sunday and Weekday School classrooms. The second
phase included additional renovations and a new
addition. The addition will contain a new entry
and two-story gathering space, welcome desk,
children’s facilities, and a multi-purpose worship /
gym room.
The exterior design is equally important. To tie
with the character of the campus and the desires
of the client, a Georgian style was employed. Cast
stone and specialized brick patterns (Flemish garden bond) unite the new addition to the existing
buildings.

Within the courtyard, one sees the belfry and has

The church is expressed as a semicircular dome
with arms partially extended around a freely
shaped welcoming courtyard. The hemispherical
structure is made of wood glulam and covered
with a white glossy ceramic shell on the exterior.
Wood beams and deck remain exposed on the interior. The dome is lifted on short columns and appears to float above a surrounding pond of water.

An old cartoon shows a painter painting himself
into a corner. Left with no exit, the painter paints
a door and leaves the room...Unfortunately, construction is less forgiving. The best projects have a
vision for growth, change, and optimal utilization
for years to come. Master planning is a process by
which the needs and wants of a client can be contemplated over time before construction. Spaces
can be right sized and buildings correctly located
before expensive drawings are commissioned or
dirt turned.
The best master plans are a tremendous value.
When construction costs can exceed $200 per
square foot, the master plan can pay for itself by
identifying just a few spaces not to build. Lastly,
experience has shown that master plans are a
very good method for a client to develop staff or
stakeholder support and consensus building prior
to fund raising or initiating the ultimate project.

Completion Date
2012 est.
Insight for Living Incorporated is the broadcast and
communication ministry of Pastor Chuck Swindoll
and his wife Cynthia. Following completion of
Stonebriar Church, the Swindolls desired to move
their ministry’s headquarters closer to the church.
The new headquarters would support administrative, production, and support staff, recording
studios, video support and production facilities,
meeting and gathering rooms, and short-term
apartments.
The project began by developing planned development documents to create a site adjacent to the
church. Floor plans and exterior character were
developed after very close consultation with the
client. A Mediterranean style was selected to
81
MICHAEL VOIT [architec t]
complement the adjacent church and the character demands required by the city. Arches, clay tile
roofs, and distressed stucco and stone would establish the traditional image.
The site required careful attention to storm water
management. To accommodate expected water
retention, half the site water would be stored underground. The other half of the water would be
diverted to an ornamental pond at the corner of
the site adjacent to a major city intersection.
The exterior design was developed in conjunction
with Fusch Architects.

Haltom City is a suburb of Fort Worth, Texas. As
part of a plan to upgrade the city’s image and
facilities, a new library was needed to replace
an outdated and undersized facility. While most
city facilities have a traditional character, the
city desired that the new library appear more
contemporary to conform with a new planned
development adjacent to the library’s site.

has an extensive amount of glass to allow plentiful
daylight and allow for views to a planned park.
The design was challenged by a freight rail line in
close proximity to the site. To mitigate the train
and horn noise and the harsh west sun a bar of
service, staff, and meeting rooms was created as a
buffer to the main library space.

MICHAEL VOIT [architec t]
The city’s original senior center no longer met the
needs of its visitors. Programming meetings and
tours of other centers led to an economical design
which conformed with the strict architectural expression mandated within the Frisco Square development.
In addition to the design of this facility, the project
included master planning of a 3.5 acre site for the
Senior Center and its future expansion.
Meeting rooms, a lounge space, fitness space and
a kitchen help to make this an exciting building for
the City of Frisco. The interior design is traditional,
with stained wood accents of wood crown molds
and chair rails. The exterior features detailed brick
patterns, cast-stone arches, awnings, finals, and
other details to tie to the overall development and
the desires of the seniors.

MICHAEL VOIT [architec t]
The Exxon Tiger Exhibit: Tigers of Southeast Asia
is a 2 acre valley site featuring Indo-Chinese and
Sumatran Tiger habitats in a rotation concept.
The site offers the zoo outstanding opportunities
to devote focused attention on tiger conservation
and breeding of these endangered species.
The design approach was to concentrate the major viewing from a Thai-themed viewing structure
within the heavily forested “jungle” bowl, spanning the center of the tiger’s habitat. The visitor’s
journey along a meandering trail crossing streams
with multiple views through bamboo groves and
blinds. The trail provides chance encounters and
discovery events to understand the behavior and
situation of tigers in the wild. The dramatic peak
of the experience places the visitors within the
center of the Tiger Habitat. The primary tiger
holding occurs in a separate structure off-exhibit
and under the Thai houses.
Directly adjacent to the tiger exhibit is a new primate exhibit. Large steel structures were developed to allow a comfortable enclosure and allow
viewing by the public. Existing structures were
reused and re-purposed for off-exhibit primate
housing.
The project was developed in conjunction with
Ursa International.

Northpark Central Office Building
Renovation
Completion Date
1995
The 20-story office building across from Northpark
Mall needed new life and desired a class “A” image: the lobby was dated and poorly oriented to
the street, the parking garage ingress and egress
cutoff the lobby entrance from pedestrians, and
the identity or character to the street and block
was poor.
One of the more interesting aspects of the project occurred before construction. To prepare the
building for the project, a chalk pastel mural was
drawn on site to represent the view and configuration of the lobby to come.
The winning design of a competition, the design
addresses the various deficiencies but re-routing
car and service access on the site, carving out a
new lobby entrance, and creating a focal entrance
and identity wall for passersby. Lastly, accessibility issues were addressed throughout the building
and site.
