Kate Samuels is a design leader with 12 years of experience translating projects from interior detail to urban-scale plans, currently directing Design and Construction at GBP in New York. She combines rigorous technical skills—DOB filings, construction documentation, and project management—with a practiced eye for interiors honed at boutique firms and large-scale design experience from ODA. A Columbia-educated urban designer, she has integrated demographic-driven, bottom-up approaches into master planning and led multidisciplinary teams on residential and institutional projects across the U.S. As a co-founder of DTLS Architecture she balances firm-building and business management with hands-on design leadership. Her portfolio reflects an unusual breadth: deep attention to finish-level detail alongside coordination of complex multi-site developments like a 5,000 sf Long Island City townhouse and the new Queens Council on the Arts headquarters.
