Despite being a young industry professional, Trent Manchester brings 10 years of design industry experience to the table covering a wide range of disciplines such as custom home architecture, graphic and visual communication, marketing design, and land planning.  Trent’s early experience of studying high-end custom design architecture lent to his passion of creating special places for clients to live, love and be with their families.

Trent graduated with honors from Arizona State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Housing and Urban Development and joined Espiritu Loci in 2012, where creating one of a kind places is in the name. Trent has since contributed to the design and development of many projects including large master-planned communities such as Verrado, Eastmark, and Robson Communities, long-term family legacy visioning and entitlements for ranching families in Arizona, detailed site planning and neighborhood crafting of award-winning neighborhood infill projects for homebuilders, brand marketing, and community outreach.

Trent also focuses on building relationships with home builders, homeowners and community associations to review and administer neighborhood design guidelines and assist design review committees during the design review process for custom homes in the southeast valley.

Coupled with his passion for the outdoors, psychology, and quantum mechanics, he has a desire to design both the natural and built environments in a manner that changes the way people experience where they live and ultimately love to call home.
