About

About Richärd Kennedy Architects.

THE FIRM Richärd Kennedy Architects is a studio-based design firm predicated on the idea that sustainable design permeates every level of the work, from site to landscape, building envelope, building systems, interior spaces, and furnishings. Since the firm's origin in 1996, the programming, planning, and design of public buildings have been an essential part of our work. Our portfolio features public and private institutions projects, including work for civic, higher education, academic research laboratories, and commercial clients.

Our success in the pursuit of design excellence is evidenced by national acclaim in the form of awards and publications of our projects. The firm has received numerous local, regional, national, and international design awards, including the American Institute of Architects "National Honor Award" for Architecture. The firm was recognized as an "Emerging Voice" by the Architectural League of New York, one of the "New Vanguard" by Architectural Record.

QUALITY OF DESIGN Sustainability is essential to our design process. Our team works closely with our clients to establish the environmental goals for each project. We strive to create holistic designs protecting the environment, conserving natural resources, and promoting indoor environmental quality. Each design grows in response to its functional needs and the site, with an acute awareness of the environment.

We are committed to providing a world-class sustainable architecture that stands the test of time. Our design philosophy integrates each element of the project into a cohesive whole. Each project is a careful and deliberate study of the project's needs, reflecting our client's Identity, Institutional Awareness, and Mission. The stated objective of many of our clients is the development of a facility representative of them and their goals, function, use, and philosophy. From this understanding, we develop architectural solutions capturing the spirit and aspirations of the people and organizations in powerful and meaningful ways.
