RECENT PROJECTS
SERVICES
Architecture
Aria specializes in designing hotels and smart buildings. Whether it is a large or a small project, an executive-level Principal-in-Charge leads a multi-disciplinary Aria team of architects to deliver fully integrated consultancy services from conception and thru handing over of the project. Our principal hospitality architect has designed some of the finest hotels providing elegance, clarity, and memorable imagery for brands such as Grand Hyatt, Andaz, Four Seasons, Hyatt Regency, Millennium Knickerbocker, and J.W. Marriott, which can be found in India, Brazil, Colombia, China, and the United States.
Research
Our research team accelerates the introduction of energy-efficient building technologies. A highly efficient building uses roughly 60% to 70% less energy than an average building. Through continual improvement in building envelope design, efficient materials, and the incorporation of smart technologies, buildings can meet this target.
Infrastructure Planning for Transportation
Aria provides unique skills in developing solutions to infrastructure challenges in energy and transportation, from leading innovative “smart grid” solutions, to helping guide a world-class regional transportation authority. We put our singular experience at your disposal. We understand that buildings and the people who use them do not exist in isolation but rather are part of interconnected systems. This integration helps drive our creativity.
Engineering
Aria brings a depth of resources and experience to the project goals of its clients, as well as the ability to balance design considerations with cost and timing constraints. With an integrated, multi-discipline in-house team, Aria designs cost-efficient, sustainable, and technical solutions for buildings, building systems, and site infrastructure. With its expertise in highly technical facilities, Aria applies the latest analytical tools and techniques, coupled with energy modeling capabilities. Aria offers comprehensive engineering services, including energy modeling, civil, structural, plumbing, and fire protection.
Smart Buildings
Aria leverages innovative expertise and the synergy of architecture, engineering, and planning to create appropriate responses to today’s challenges. Our smart building design efforts, for example, are leavened with insights from developing Illinois Institute of Technology's US Department of Energy-funded "Smart Home" laboratory, to increase energy efficiency for both cost and sustainability reasons.
