2021: Our virtual reality

It’s 2021! We’ve made it!

We’ve spent nearly a year working remotely, at full steam, supporting our clients with design solutions that are more critical than ever to navigate their workspace, shape the healthcare environment and reinvent (again) what the classroom can and should provide.

Every day, our team discovers fresh ways to communicate and predict how design decisions will affect the people who inhabit the places we design. Each floor plan and configuration has implications on what circulation, collaboration (and especially celebration!) can safely look like in this new future.
We have a long history of harnessing emerging technologies to communicate design concepts—from simply stated diagrammatic sketches to fly over animations and fully clash coordinated BIM models. We look forward to sharing some of these concepts with you here.

Here’s to a year of new beginnings!

Library Design in a Changing World

With the ever-evolving nature of teaching and learning, the academic library has already undergone a great transformation by adapting to new paradigms present in higher education. The proliferation of digital resources and scholarship has meant that access to information is everywhere and even more critical in the current circumstances.

Center 63

Nichols School Class of 1963 Center for Science and Mathematics turns 10 at the end of this year!

Maryvale Hospital - Behavioral Health Planning

Maryvale Hospital – Phoenix, AZ

We are excited to collaborate with Maricopa Integrated Health System on converting Phoenix’s Maryvale Hospital into a 203 bed Behavioral Health Hospital.

Making Place

There is no placemaking without people. As we move together toward a post-covid era, what new factors will impact our sense of place? The tools of placemaking were important before, and now they are crucial to how we experience our environment.

Spring Renewal

With our roots in Buffalo NY, it has always been imperative for our team at A|r to be four-season thinkers and designers. The elements have a profound and ever-changing effect on any built space, and the best designs use them to their advantage.

Design Technology

A|r was one of the first firms in the country to integrate full scale Building Information Modeling (BIM) project execution into our practice. Our team leverages BIM capabilities to create highly intelligent models, providing sophisticated visualizations which inform and optimize design, budget and schedules.
