Douglas E. Noble is an American architect and tenured faculty member at the USC School of Architecture. He is a fellow of the American Institute of Architects.[1] He received the the ACSA/AIAS New Faculty Teaching Award in 1995,[2] and the ACSA Creative Achievement Award in 2013[3] He was named among the "10 most admired educators" in architecture in 2010[4] and was selected again in 2015 [5]


Early career

edit

Noble completed a Bachelor of Science in Architecture and a Bachelor of Architecture at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, and both a Master of Architecture and Ph.D. at the University of California at Berkeley. His doctoral dissertation built on the work of Horst Rittel by creating a computer supported Issue-Based Information System. Noble taught for a few years at UC Berkeley and then joined the faculty of the USC School of Architecture in 1991.

Later career

edit

With Karen M. Kensek, he founded the CLIPPER Lab at USC in 1991 for the study of architectural computing. Noble has taught at USC since 1991, focusing on architectural computing, building science, and design theories and methods. He has written more than 100 articles, and collaborated with noted architects and educators, including Pierre Koenig, Horst Rittel, and Ralph Lewis Knowles. He served as Associate Dean of the School from 2007-2009,[6] and has served as Chair of the Ph.D. program and Director of Graduate Building Science since 2009. With Kensek and Mic Patterson, he founded the Facade Tectonics Institute in 2007 as a university-based research and education organization. The Facade Tectonics Institute has hosted dozens of conferences and published hundreds of research papers focusing on research in building facade technology.[7] He received a Graham Foundation Grant in 2011 for research related to the Freeman House, a residence designed in 1924 by Frank Lloyd Wright.[8] Together, Noble and Kensek have received several awards for their innovative "NotLY: Not Licensed Yet" support system for individuals preparing for the Architect Registration Examination.[9] In addition to completing several buildings as an architect, Noble is a widely-recognized leader in championing and mentoring emerging architecture professionals.
