This is the best architecture firm in The Valley. They do mostly commercial and are very cutting edge in terms of design, technology, and green initiatives. Architekton has been a staple in the Tempe community for over 20 years and is owned by 4 local architects, most of whom graduated from ASU's school of Architecture. They have a large team of employees and are one of the few architecture firms who have avoided layoffs during these rough economic times. For examples of what they've done you can go to their website or just drive by the Tempe Center for the Arts off of Rio Salado right on the Tempe Town Lake. Or the new Tempe Transit Center next door to ASU's football stadium. These are just two of their latest and greatest en devours. They are a quality company that is also always giving back to the community that has given them so much. They have been volunteering at Tempe Cares since it's inception in 1991as well as donating time and money to countless other charitable organizations. If I ever need a building designed or have enough money to build a custom home I will be hiring them to do the designs. read more
