Bob Clements, AIA, LEED AP
A key designer at Line and Space, Bob has been a member of the firm since 1991. He has extensive experience in the production, coordination and quality review of Contract Documents and was heavily involved in the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum Restaurant
and Gallery Complex and Slusser Memorial Library in Tucson, the Desert Learning Center and Wild Horse and Burro Complex outside of Las Vegas, and the firm's projects throughout China.

Bob has a strong construction background acting as Project Superintendent on Line and Space’s design/build projects, including the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum Restaurant and Gallery Complex and Campbell Cliffs, a large custom residence integrated into the Catalina Mountains of Tucson. In this role, Bob supervises and communicates with subcontractors, directly working with them to improve details using innovative materials
and construction methods which result in a high quality project.

Bob balances excellent analytical skills with a very fine capacity for spatial visualization and communication. His strong graphics support Line and Space's programming and design workshops and
his knowledge and love of the outdoors is invaluable.
