Chris Mueller, Project Designer at LGA Architecture.

“Hang in there.” – the cat from inspirational posters

Chris Mueller

Chris Mueller is a Job Captain at LGA Architecture, known for his creativity, craft, and thoughtful approach to design. Whether through hand rendering, digital visualization, or concept development, Chris brings ideas to life in a way that is both expressive and grounded. His work is not only visually compelling, but intentional—always considering how design connects with people.

An asset to any team, Chris is collaborative by nature and brings a steady, positive presence to both clients and colleagues. He values shared perspectives and believes the best ideas come from working together.

Chris holds a Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and a Master of Architecture from Lawrence Technological University. He has been working in the profession since 2006 and joined LGA in 2016.

Outside of work, Chris is an artist at heart. He enjoys painting, hand rendering, and spending time outdoors with his family—often escaping to the Utah wilderness to fish, recharge and find inspiration.

Favorite Project Ingredients: Clients who are enthusiastic and accepting of new ideas, integration of natural daylight and, whenever possible, well-shaded, outdoor green spaces.

Something You Didn’t Know: I once lived in the small (and slightly quirky) town of George, Washington. Home of the world’s largest cherry pie!

Friends: Genuine people with an honest smile, and a skillfully crafted Old Fashioned.

Foes: A Las Vegas windstorm in the brutal August heat.
