MEET DESIGN UA

With over 40 years of Architectural and Engineering experience, founded by Tom Le, our firm was built on the belief that architecture is most impactful when it is rooted in partnership. From the outset, Tom envisioned a practice where architects move beyond a purely transactional role to become trusted collaborators—fully invested in understanding each client’s goals, challenges, and long-term vision. This philosophy has guided the firm’s growth and continues to shape how we approach every project, regardless of size or complexity.

At the core of our practice is a deep commitment to designing spaces that serve all stakeholders, from owner/operators & corporate stakeholders to end users and surrounding communities. We believe that meaningful design begins with genuine relationships, taking the time to know our clients as people, not just as contracts. By pairing thoughtful listening with technical expertise and proactive collaboration, our team creates environments that are both highly functional and purpose-driven, delivering lasting value well beyond project completion.

• Partnership – We build strong relationships with our clients and with each other, grounded in respect, accountability, and shared success.

• Communication – We value responsiveness, transparency, and honest dialogue

• Collaborative Growth – We believe great work comes from strong teams, investing in mentorship, learning, and the professional development of our people.

• Purposeful Design – We approach every project with intention, aligning creativity, technical excellence, and brand understanding

• Shared Ownership – We take pride in our work, support one another, and hold ourselves collectively responsible for delivering quality outcomes.

Our team welcomes the opportunity to establish new client relationships and serve as a trusted A&E partner in support of national brand expansion initiatives. We approach each engagement by first listening—seeking to understand your brand identity, development goals, and project timelines—so we can align our expertise with your strategic objectives. From this foundation, we develop a tailored approach that supports efficient delivery, consistency, and long-term value across your portfolio.

Our services include, but are not limited to: site design and test fitting; schematic design, design development, construction documentation, and construction administration; project management services; site investigations and analysis; and 2D/3D visualization. If you are evaluating architectural partners to support your expansion goals, we would welcome the opportunity to connect and discuss how our team can add value to your program.
