Lynn Gaffney RA, LEED AP, is a nationally recognized architect (Dwell, Metropolitan Home, New York Times) whose firm, Lynn Gaffney Architect (lga) founded in 1997, has produced a range of work diverse in scale, program, spatial qualities and aesthetic styles.

Throughout her career Lynn has been fortunate to find clients with an inquisitive and collaborative spirit. Lynn builds a team specific to each assignment including the client, colleague, craftsperson, carpenter, contractor. She keeps focus on shared goals while integrating each individual’s creative strengths. Together the team challenges the status quo and transforms the project’s objectives (as well as obstacles) into uniquely tailored solutions.

Lynn pursues and considers all prospective projects on the basis of achieving balance - in life (work/ live), in site locale (urban/rural), and in client type (residential/ commercial/ institutional). In addition she has consistently supported various non-profits with pro-bono work and is always intrigued to hear about these opportunities.

Lynn lives and works in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn with her husband Bill and young daughter Genevieve.
