Meet Devi Dutta-Choudhury | Member Spotlight


It was serendipitous that Devi found herself initially working with the AIA as part of their communications committee. She loves the connections she has forged as AIA East Bay creates opportunities in architecture. As a result, she is constantly expanding her portfolio. Of the many projects she has worked on, a current favorite project is one that “morphed from a tiny kitchen renovation” to a full-scale house with a pool house and an ADU. A project that Devi would love to have in her portfolio would be a communal housing project that brings together people and families in a shared space.
Devi has two teenaged children and one adult child who have grown alongside her architectural practice. While running her own firm and being a mom, she has somehow found the time to write a book. She is the author of the book House to Home: Designing Your Space for the Way You Live, which is geared not toward the architect but toward the homeowner.
