Robin Landis

Senior Engineer
Holmes

Robin is a Senior Engineer based in Portland with international engineering firm Holmes. Her 12+ years of experience is spread across all market sectors and material types. In the last 6 years, she has been particularly involved and dedicated to the advancement of mass timber construction in the United States. Robin is pioneering structural applications of new wood systems in national and local markets focusing on the implementation of the premier point-supported CLT system. This effort is backed by her extensive research and testing in partnership with the REACTS Consortium and Oregon State University. Looking ahead, Robin sees far-reaching opportunities for point-supported systems as climate conscious framing within mid-to-high-rise multi-family residential structures.

Robin’s approach to mass timber design invites creativity and collaboration across AEC trades. She works with teams to minimize a project’s impact on the built environment and celebrate structural materiality. Robin finds it incredibly rewarding to deliver completed mass timber solutions to communities most in need: it’s all about creating spaces that people thrive in.
