Jon Wyman re-joins the firm with nearly two decades of leadership experience in the design industry. As the firm's Vice President, Strategy & Development, he will play a pivotal role in directing the firm's business development efforts, while also helping to chart new strategic directions for the firm.

With over two decades of experience – and nearly a decade with SB Architects – Vito provides the foundation for the technical leadership and full-service project delivery in the firm's San Francisco office. An effective leader and a voice for sound design principles, Vito epitomizes the firm's emphasis on growing talented staff from within the organization and attention to detail in its design practice.

Eric Leung, who joins the firm as Director of Asian Business Development, heads the firm's first China office, leading the charge as the firm continues to build upon its significant existing design practice throughout Asia. Eric brings to the firm extensive experience in both the hospitality development and design industries.

In over 50 years of design practice, SB Architects has built a project portfolio that spans the globe. The firm regularly competes with some of the largest architecture firms in the world, yet it has continued to maintain a hands-on, boutique practice, driven by collaboration, teamwork and individual client relationships.
