Welcome to the Studio
The office of Winstanley Architects & Planners was established on the principle of collaborative endeavors amongst associated design professionals.
Together. All at once.
Our multidisciplinary approach, much like a workshop, creates an environment for active exploration of project ideas from diverse points of view. By working in concert, the result is a comprehensive design solution that is unified and fuses the best elements of all disciplines.
From there, we let our finished projects speak on our behalf.

The Whitman-Walker Clinic’s Max Robinson Center is a cutting-edge healthcare facility that serves as a beacon of hope and support for Whitman-Walker’s diverse population. Located on Parcel 17 of the St. Elizabeth’s East campus in DC’s Ward 8, the design thoughtfully integrates the site’s historic surroundings while responding to the needs of the people it serves with grace and purpose.
This center continues Whitman-Walker’s 50+ year legacy of providing accessible healthcare, advocacy, and research. Winstanley Architects & Planners is proud to have helped bring this latest project to fruition for the community.
In 2025, Winstanley Architects and Planners received the Design Award of Merit in Health Architecture by @aianorthernvirginia for the Max Robinson Center 🏆

At Winstanley Architects & Planners, we are industry leaders in resilient design, specializing in architecture and planning that proactively addresses climate change, sea level rise, and extreme weather events. Our expertise is rooted in developing innovative, future-proof solutions that not only mitigate environmental risks but also enhance the long-term viability of urban areas. With extensive experience in South Florida and the Caribbean, our work is highly regarded and has been recognized for its commitment to designing structures capable of withstanding Category 5 hurricanes, coastal flooding, and rising sea levels 🌊
One such project, Ponce Paradise, exemplifies our forward-thinking approach to resilient urban development. Designed as a mixed-use coastal community 🌴, the project integrates four key elements - a Town Center with a University Medical Center, a Wellness Community, a Hotel Lagoon & Recreation Area, and a Farm-to-Table Agricultural Micro-Grid - all strategically connected by a newly carved canal linking the ocean to inland waterways. Recognizing the region’s susceptibility to flooding, the design incorporates two diaphragmatic basins (lagoons) that act as dynamic flood management systems, absorbing and releasing water to prevent storm surges and extreme tide impacts. Additionally, the site’s topography is elevated using excavated materials, reinforcing land stability and reducing vulnerability to sea level rise.

Throwback to 2015 and our award-winning work for Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, KY
The master plan of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary included the expansion and relocation of Boyce College, the seminary’s undergraduate feeder program, into the main fabric of the Seminary’s main campus designed by James Gamble Rogers. The principal thrust of the relocation was the renovation of the Mullins Complex to create a “Residential College” nested in the predominantly Graduate-level Seminary, housing 350 residents, the Boyce College Administration and faculty.
The historic importance of Mullins Hall is founded in the lineage of this building in the career of James Gamble Rogers.
Winstanley was recognized locally and nationally for this work, receiving:
⭐️Educational Interiors Showcase Special Citation, American School & University Magazine
⭐️Architectural Portfolio Residence Hall Citation, American School & University Magazine
⭐️Merit Award, The Kentucky Society of Architects
⭐️Award of Excellence, @aianorthernvirginia
