Eric is a zoning whisperer. He specializes in balancing and blending the often competing needs of urban design, architecture, and development in a potent cocktail for better places. He specializes in breaking down and demystifying regulations to find ways to make great projects possible while helping others navigate the redevelopment maze. He uses his skills for the force of good as a principal at Kronberg Urbanists + Architects (KUA), leading the firm’s skilled practitioners to help our development partners create better places for all. His work with KUA, the Incremental Development Alliance, the Congress for the New Urbanism, the Georgia Conservancy, and the Atlanta Bicycle Coalition has solidified his stance as an advocate for walkable communities.

Elizabeth, a native Atlantan and third generation Yellow Jacket, is an architect and city planner, with master’s degrees from Georgia Tech in both fields. She leads the firm’s urban design and thought leadership efforts, with her varied background allowing her to wear many hats throughout the design and planning processes. With a talent for graphic communication and big-picture thinking, Elizabeth enjoys developing links between design, research, policy, and education.
Dedicated to creating an Atlanta she is proud to live in, Elizabeth serves on the City of Atlanta Tree Conservation Commission and her neighborhood planning committee. When not dreaming of ways to create better built environments, Elizabeth is likely exploring Georgia’s small towns, camping somewhere remote, or kayaking in the Lowcountry.
