Casey Jones (BSArch’88) Appointed Director of the General Services Administration’s Design Excellence Program

Casey Jones (BSArch’88) worked with the GSA’s Design Excellence Program as an associate director prior to establishing the Michigan-based design firm jones|kroloff in 2005 with Reed Kroloff, director of Cranbrook Academy of Art.

According to archpaper.com, Jones will “oversee the architect selection and design process for the GSA, one of the nation’s largest development organizations, responsible for building and maintaining everything from border stations to federal courthouses.”

Prior to joining the federal government, Jones helped establish the Van Alen Institute, a leading architectural and urban design research center in New York. In May 2007, Architect Magazine recognized Jones as one of the "hidden powers" practicing in architecture today.
