Scott Heath
Scott Heath is a designer, photographer, and visual artist living in New Orleans.
Scott received his undergraduate degree in Visual Arts at the University of California, San Diego and obtained a Master degree in Architecture and a Certificate in Preservation Studies at Tulane University. His undergraduate work explored questions of identity and representation through interactive digital media, video, and photography. After working for several years as a graphic designer creating data-driven websites and instructional multimedia, Scott decided to change the focus of his career to architecture and historic preservation. During his graduate studies at the Tulane School of Architecture, Scott co-edited and designed the Richardson Memorial Hall Historic Structure Report.
As a designer and project manager in Louisiana and Florida, Scott has contributed to a broad range of architectural projects for institutional, commercial, and residential uses, with an emphasis in renovation and historic rehabilitation. He enjoys utilizing his training in preservation studies for building renovations and historic tax credits applications in the historic districts of New Orleans. Scott has worked with Bell Butler Design & Architecture as a designer, Mathes Brierre Achitects as an Architectural Associate, and at Adamick Architecture as a project manager and designer.

Outside of architecture practice, Scott seeks to explore creative liminal spaces between various artistic disciples and genres. He has developed his photographic vision to engage questions of place-making, architectural representation, and landscape, after an earlier interest in non-traditional portraiture. Scott looks forward to revealing future artistic expressions that engage various aspects of sculpture, architecture, and projective geometry. He resides in a hundred-and-fifty-two year-old Italianate home in the Lower Garden District with his husband, Joe.
