Architect, Jeremiah Johnson, is driven by an affinity towards discovery, a curiosity for the built environment and a love of people. Born and raised in New Orleans, Johnson worked in both the hospitality and construction industries throughout his early life. From carpentry to bartending, tile work to shucking oysters, his first-hand experiences have afforded him an insider’s perspective to developing functional and buildable design. To this day, Johnson maintains a very hands-on approach to his pursuit of better architecture.

Johnson is a confirmed professional in the City of Chicago Department of Buildings Self-Certified Architect Program which grants him use of an expedited permitting process for projects that meet city-specified criteria. Since starting his own Chicago-based design build practice in 1998, Jeremiah Johnson has completed over 300 hospitality-related projects in Chicago and across the United States. Currently, he has offices in Chicago, New Orleans, and Miami.
