Guthrie’s clients have included the Smithsonian Institution, the Nu Skin Corporation, and the Department of State, as well as major universities and developers. Her recent projects include the Life Sciences Building at the University of Washington, the industrially-inspired Spring District, and the Long Beach Civic Center (a P3 project).
