Carpenter's interest in architecture and structure has evolved into a unique design practice and studio, James Carpenter Design Associates, a multi-disciplinary architectural design firm with a specific focus on the exploration and management of light. The firm specializes in both the aesthetic and functional development and documentation of enclosure systems, glass structures and skylights, and specialty construction on building skins.
James Carpenter studied architecture and sculpture at the Rhode Island School of Design, graduating in 1972. He actively exhibited his sculpture and installation film projects throughout the US and Europe, and from 1972 to 1982 worked as a consultant with Corning Glass Works in Corning, NY, researching the development of new glass materials including photo responsive glass and various glass ceramics. These projects were aimed at potential architectural applications, utilizing the technical capabilities of such glass to control and manipulate light and information
