Design is a process, not just a task.
At Rob Paulus Architects, we believe that architecture is about integrating with nature, and when done right, it can make living, working, and playing more rewarding while also providing a lighter footprint on our planet. Our designs are guided by a conviction that creating quality environments that integrate people with nature has a positive effect on the quality of our lives. We work at various scales, from modest houses to city master plans, and have extensive experience in multiple building types, including housing, workplace, educational, government, health, retail, mixed-use, planning, interior, institutional, and high-tech facilities.
Our Philosophy
Growing up in Arizona, the desert has played an important role in forming our approach to architecture. We believe that architecture must lie gently upon the earth and be responsive to its environs. It must fit with its site and work with all surrounding elements, whether in a tight urban environment or in the "middle of nowhere". Combining the wants and needs of human existence while maintaining the delicate balance and cycle of the natural world we live in is the primary driving force of our approach.
Our Approach
Our approach to design is "Passive First, Active Later, " which allows for maximizing efficiency with analog means and vernacular methods before embarking on the use of active technologies for lighting and thermal control. By using this method, we are able to provide structures that not only use less resources and energy but also create more productive and healthier environments for their users. We believe that to learn from one another is the best approach to find the optimal solution, and critical to our architectural process is a team approach that allows for a hands-on approach from all involved to build upon strong concepts.
Our Services
Our services include architecture, interior design, planning, and sustainable design. We offer a comprehensive approach to design, from concept to completion, and our team of professionals is dedicated to providing innovative and sustainable solutions that meet our clients' needs and exceed their expectations.
