Graham Sharum

Graham is an Architectural Designer with experience spanning a wide range of project types and scales — from intimate 500-square-foot spaces to large-scale 500,000-square-foot developments. As a LEED AP, he brings strong environmental awareness to every project, designing buildings that are both sustainable and responsive to their surrounding context.

He believes project success is rooted in the craft of the details — how they function cohesively, protect the safety and well-being of users, and ensure long-term durability. Having been appointed to the Fort Smith Historic District Commission early in his career, he has developed a deep appreciation for the value of our existing built environment and the importance of preserving historic resources whenever possible. He strongly advocates for rehabilitating and restoring rather than replacing — a practice that conserves limited resources and reduces waste, creating a more sustainable future for generations to come.

As a child, Graham was drawn to precision and design, building intricate scale models of military aircraft and studying every detail imaginable — a passion that undoubtedly shaped his pursuit of architecture.
