Aaron Cole

Aaron Cole, the owner and principal architect of Open Architecture Practice, loves the outdoors. Hiking, biking, camping, and gardening score high on the list of things to do with his free time. Is it any wonder that the love of nature guides his standards for architecture? Considering the endless forms that architecture may take, having the guiding principle of minimizing environmental impact at every decision allows Open Architecture Practice to create built environments that enhance the occupants’ quality of life. Aaron designs with the understanding that every building plays a role in the ecosystem, and the buildings we occupy influence our overall well-being. By incorporating comfort, beauty, and eco-sensitivity into each unique project, Aaron brings his clients’ dreams into reality.

Aaron is a graduate of Southern Polytechnic State University (now Kennesaw State University) in Marietta, GA, with a Bachelor’s degree in architecture. With more than 10 years of experience in the architecture profession, Aaron is licensed to practice in Tennessee and Georgia, and is a Certified Passive House Consultant (CPHC).
