ERIC IVERS

SENIOR DESIGN ARCHITECT

Eric Ivers joined Hord Architects in 2012 and brings a well-rounded record that bridges a deep appreciation of Classical architecture and traditional urban design with a practical background in general contracting and construction management.  He is a licensed architect in the state of Tennessee, and is NCARB certified, allowing for reciprocity in other states.

Eric has familiarity in all phases of architecture services with experience in civic, K-12, elementary and higher education, commercial, residential, and multi-family housing, historic preservation projects.  Moreover, he has experience in master planning and urban design.  He is an avid scholar of history, philosophy, and the classics.  This has given him a rich resource from which to create relevant buildings full of life and energy while maintaining an architectural language rooted within the great tradition.

Eric’s father was a church planter and preacher in the Pacific Northwest, and this has given him a deep appreciation of theology and ministry.  Mr. Ivers is married to his wife Brandie and they have five children.  They are members of the Presbyterian Church of America and currently attend Independent Presbyterian Church in Memphis.
