Architectural Services

Austin AECOM is committed to an architecture based on four elemental concepts: understanding the vision and goals of the client; responding to the programmatic, functional and aesthetic requirements of the building; sensitivity to the site and its context; sustainable design as an integral part of buildings that conserve energy and preserve natural resources.  Austin AECOM’s architects approach each project as a collaborative effort with the client and end-users at the center of the work.  They strive for a shared understanding that incorporates a mission, culture and ideals where design and innovation can grow.  This design process focuses on highly technical and complex buildings that respect the past, are rooted in the present and lead us toward the future.

The project team at Austin AECOM includes talented architectural designers, combined with experienced technical and construction professionals to develop the project from conceptual design through construction administration.  A project executive with experience in highly technical building types provides leadership and oversight from programming through occupancy, ensuring that client requirements are met at each phase of the project.  A strong emphasis on adherence to the schedule and designing within budget is reinforced by the project executive.

Sustainability
Sustainable design is a universal approach that incorporates environmental considerations into the design process from the beginning.  Sustainability is an important aspect of architecture at Austin AECOM.  The design process for complex technical facilities requires high performance solutions including strategic building orientation, integrated energy system design, coordinated mechanical system analysis and extra-efficient building envelope design.  Austin AECOM is committed to assisting clients to obtain LEED certification on projects and has worked closely with private and public clients toward that goal.  Austin AECOM professionals include LEED accredited architects, engineers, designers and technical personnel.
