Firm Bio
Pings & Associates was founded in 1981 to create an architectural studio having the freedom to assemble an architectural team to exceed client expectations. It is a setting where traditional architectural complacency is replaced with client driven innovation. Practicing architecture with a value added focus, partnering and collaborating with clients to define and articulate their needs: then crafting design solutions to meet those needs. We work to blend the art and science of architectural design into facilities that are subservient to and supporting of the client’s needs and vision. The end result is a building of exceptional quality and value that publicly displays the client’s strengths and abilities.
These founding principles guide us as clearly today as they did three decades ago. Our studio is staffed by passionate and proficient design professionals and collaborators, working within a studio structure and atmosphere. It is a structure where each team member contributes his or her unique skills toward client focused solutions. We are not about the projects we design: we are about the people who use them.
