David Richard Chisholm

Chairman of the Board, Director of Design & Urban Environments CKA /1960 USA/

Architecture is a journey, a search, a way of life. We search for understanding, substance, meaning and identity in a complex global environment.“

David Richard Chisholm is one of the original founders of CMCARCHITECTS studio in Prague, Czech Republic. With thirty years of practice, David has led CMCA to winning prestigious awards and competitions, and to becoming one of the premier architectural firms in the Czech Republic. David’s constant search for originality, in a fractal approach to design, has created CMCA’s widely published, unique buildings over the past twenty years. With several world collaborations to his credit, including Ateliers Jean Nouvel from Paris, Gehry Partners from Los Angeles, MVRDV from Rotterdam, ARUP from the UK, and recently MIAS from Barcelona, David has elevated design and professionalism at CMCARCHITECTS to successfully work on an international level.

The experience David Richard Chisholm holds is from inventive and conceptual, to detail and construction of large office complexes, towers, train stations, airports, exhibition centers, residential communities, large public spaces, and landscapes of every scale. David Richard Chisholm was the lead designer and spear-headed the award-winning Prague International Airport Master Plan, the expansion of the Prague Congress Center, the Prague Market Urban Regeneration Master Plan, won both the prestigious Pasohlavky Spa Resort competition and the Nuselsky Brewery Urban Regeneration competition, invented the iconic vertical garden office complex BUTTERFLY KARLIN, and has won several awards for his Brownfield Adaptive Re-Use projects.

As only the seventh foreigner in the history of the Czech Republic, David Richard Chisholm, more than twenty years ago, was granted the highest-level licensure of architecture. David was also granted architectural and urban design licenses in Monte Negro and the United States (New York) and has been a member of both the Czech Academy of Architects and the Czech Green Building Council.

Educated in the United States, David studied Economics, Psychology, Art and Architecture, with a final diploma at the School of Environmental Design & Architecture, California Polytechnic, Pomona, in Los Angeles
