As a licensed architect in RDG’s Denver office, Eric Winkler, AIA, has found his passion at the intersection of design and education, specifically in shaping spaces for the next generation of health science professionals.
Working within RDG’s College & University market, he focuses on creating environments that support learning, collaboration, and hands-on experience, particularly in areas such as simulation.
Eric believes that function and beauty should always coexist, though achieving that balance requires thoughtful problem-solving. For him, every project is an opportunity to design spaces that not only serve their purpose but also enhance the mental, physical and emotional well-being of those who use them.
He views high-quality education as the foundation of strong communities, recognizing that the environments in which learning occurs play a critical role in shaping the future. Through his work advancing health science education with intentional, human-centered design, Eric is also contributing to the future of healthcare itself.
