PIERRE DERBIER

Originally from France, Pierre first came to the United States to study Architecture and received a Bachelor of Design in Architectural Studies from Florida International University in 2005.

Upon graduation, he moved to Los Angeles and joined the firm of Jeffrey M. Kalban & Associates. During his 7 years at JMKA, he worked on a variety of project types, which included institutional, commercial and residential. Pierre honed his design ability by working with the principal designer but also garnered valuable experience through involvement in the CD and construction phases. 

 

His passion for 3D visualization and design eventually led him to accept a partnership with Alain Yotnegparian Architects in 2013 to work on the unique projects commissioned to the firm. As a senior member of the firm, Pierre serves a variety of project leadership roles in the office with a focus on design.
