Crews Tom 2016


Tom was born and raised in Oak Ridge, TN, an interesting town that was planned and built during WWII’s Manhattan Project as a part of the war effort.

He is a graduate of the University of Tennessee with a Bachelor of Architecture degree.

He moved to Aspen, CO to work as an Architect and lived there for 11 years before moving to Hilton Head Island in early 1986.

During the years in Hilton Head Island Tom has been involved in many Town government efforts as well as professional and social organizations. Some of the civic positions include the:

Town’s Energy Conservation Committee (1988-1989),

Land Planning Policy Committee (1989-1991),

Leadership Hilton Head Island Class (1993-1994),

Housing Commission (1997-1999),

Bridge to the Beach Charette (1999),

Bridge to the Beach Steering Committee (2000-2002),

HHI Revitalization Master Planning Team (2003-2004),

Design Review Board (2003-2006),

Public Arts Committee (2005-2006),

Planning Commission (2006-2011),

Comprehensive Plan Chairman (2007-2011)

LMO Rewrite Committee (2011-2014).



Professionally Tom has served as the President of American Institute of Architect/HHI Chapter (twice) and as a State Section Director on the AIA/SC Chapter. He has also served the local community as an architectural consultant to many of the Island’s private ARBs. He has been recognized with several design awards and worked for over twenty five years in the restoration and targeted completion of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Auldbrass Plantation in Yemassee, SC.



Tom and his wife, Patty, live in Windmill Harbour and enjoy time with their children and grandchildren who all live in Southern Beaufort County.



Latest development is the sale/merger of my architectural business to create a 31 person firm (mostly young folks that draw on computers instead of #2 pencils on tracing paper). My self proclaimed title is 'Old guy with connections'. I love it when an exit plan comes together!



Finally my words of wisdom - 'Spend the wealth while you have the health'.
