Anne Fougeron

Anne Fougeron (born December 7, 1955) is a French-American architect, teacher and author.

Fougeron has a varied body of works, including commercial, civic, residential and multi-family housing. The Princeton Architectural Press described her style as "embrac[ing] architectural opportunities found in opposition, creating buildings that redefine program, reinvent historical building types, and reinvigorate civic centers. Each project is a careful consideration of context, light and structure." She is known for taking on difficult projects "without sacrificing aesthetics." [1]

Her buildings have been featured in The New York Times,[2] Metropolitan Home,[3] ECO House and San Francisco Magazine.

She currently lives in the Bay Area.
