Douglas Kelbaugh FAIA

 Douglas Kelbaugh FAIA  (1945-2023) (BA magna cum laude, MArch Princeton) combined architecture/urban design teaching and practice throughout his career. 
While studying at Princeton, he co-founded a community design center in Trenton, New Jersey, and later worked for five years there as an architect and urban designer for the city.  His 1975 solar house in Princeton became the first in the country to use a Trombe Wall, and became a familiar icon of the passive solar movement.  In 1978, he founded Kelbaugh + Lee, a firm that won over 15 regional and national design awards and competitions, completing many pioneering passive solar buildings.  His designs appeared in over 100 books and magazines in many exhibitions in the USA and abroad.
In the late 1990s after moving to Seattle, his firm Kelbaugh & Calthorpe won several local and national design awards, as Doug became a Professor and Chair of the UW Department of Architecture (1985-1992).
In 1998, he joined the faculty at Taubman College at University of Michigan, and served as Dean until 2008.
He later returned to Seattle.
