Our Team
Anthony Agriam, Partner
Anthony brings 20+ years of design experience to his leadership role at Bishop Pass. A California native (born in Palm Springs and raised in Lake Tahoe), he received his degree in Environmental Design at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena followed by extensive training with some of the design industry's most notable firms. Between his upbringing in resort communities, his work experience in hospitality design, and a passion for dining out (being the son of a hotel cook), Anthony ventured on his own in 2011 to start Bishop Pass. Anthony’s approach to design is service based. His professional philosophy, and that of the studio, is to provide our clients with bespoke design solutions, customized to meet their operational needs, free from any aesthetic agenda. This approach allows Bishop Pass to deliver thoughtful, highly functional spaces that meet the needs of the client while exceeding the expectations of the customer. When Anthony's not working at the studio, he's usually doing home improvements and chucking a ball with his dog Emma.
