STRUCTURAL VISION
F5 Design is an award winning company with a reputation for consistent innovation at the highest level of design.
Todd Parker, Architect/Founder
A passion for building things led me towards Architecture at a young age. I’ve always had the inquisitive mind on how things are put together and how different materials can be used. That led me to the University of Cincinnati to study Architecture. The cooperative education program was unbelievably valuable – as I completed my studies with two and a half years of work experience.
Post graduation I searched for jobs all over the country, however, family led me back to Central Ohio where I worked for a small firm for almost four years, learning the ins and outs of High End Residential Architecture. In 2002 I established F5 Design/Architecture Inc. I wanted to focus on crafting great buildings full of expressive details and completing all of this with excellent client service.
My off the clock passions include traveling with family, golf, cars new and old, and building. I have established an addiction to carpentry and welding – always with multiple projects happening at one time.
Matt Mutchler, Architect
Architecture gained my interest because it is the intersection of art and science. The process of creative problem solving fits well into my passion of making inspiring and functional places for people to interact with.
My professional career began at the University of Cincinnati where I earned a Masters of Architecture degree. I have worked in Ohio and Florida on mixed use apartments, restaurants, and residential projects. My specific interests are in building science and efficient building of modern design.
My free time is spent working on my latest custom furniture build or partaking in a new adventure. Spending time with my wife and daughter biking, kayaking or cooking are a few of my favorite pastimes.
Zac Herbst, Architectural Associate
From a young age, I have enjoyed problem solving through design. At the University of Cincinnati where I studied Architecture, I was able to hone my abilities through the cooperative program and develop a desire for better design in the profession.
Through the cooperative program, I was able to work in several different focuses of architecture ranging from interior design to prefabrication. After college, I built exterior decks and outdoor spaces which has benefitted my understanding as a designer.
My time off is spent outdoors as much as possible. I play in soccer leagues all year round, and I enjoy kayaking, camping, and waterskiing with family and friends.
