INSIDE IONIC - Harry Harris






Inside IONIC
William Henry “Harry” Harris, III, AIA
Director of Religious Architecture

Based in our Richmond, Virginia office, Harry has an extensive architecture background and is known for establishing enduring, successful business relationships. In his current role with Ionic DeZign Studios, he is responsible for business development and client relations.
What are you currently working on?
I am currently working on several church projects in Virginia, which include additions to St. Thomas More Catholic Church in Lynchburg, a Master Vision Plan for Mt. Zion Baptist Church in Powhatan County and renovations to the Sanctuary at the Glen Allen Church of Christ. I’m also working on a new multipurpose addition to Bear Creek Baptist Church in Bakersville, North Carolina.
What inspires you?
Assisting our church clients in realizing their vision by enhancing their facilities to accomplish their mission and ministry within the church’s community.
How do you like to spend your free time?
From a young age, I have enjoyed sailing and I currently continue to sail the Chesapeake Bay whenever possible on my sloop, “Sapphire.” There is nothing more refreshing than manning the helm of a sailboat on a brisk day on the bay with all sails aloft.
Do you have a favorite quote or saying?
“Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in vain.”  Psalm 127:1
Is there anything else you would like to share?
I have had the good fortune to assist the youth of Richmond through my 35 plus years of service with the Kiwanis Club of Richmond. Our life safety programs for at-risk children and our annual Christmas party for the patients at the Children’s Hospital are always inspiring. 

This is the first in a series of “Inside IONIC” posts, designed to help you get to know the talented, innovative team at Ionic DeZign Studios.
