Tobias Guggenheimer Architect was founded in New York (USA) in 1991. Throughout decades of practice, our objective has not changed … to create exceptional, custom-designed architecture and interior solutions for clients seeking unique but pragmatic solutions. From our sister offices in the United States and Asia we set out to create powerful design stories that deliver without compromising functionality or economics.
We provide a broad-range of services resulting in technically appropriate architecture, cost effective architecture, environmentally sound architecture, easily buildable architecture and beautiful, culturally sensitive architecture.
One of our goals is to create residential and commercial architecture that is responsive to local conditions and reflective of the client’s values. A passive solar home we design in Asia will differ substantially from a net-zero home we design in the US. An office building we design in New York City will differ substantially from an office building we design in a tropical city. An elegant restaurant we design in a suburban hotel will differ substantially from a casual interior we design in a rural location. A net-zero building will differ substantially from a home dependent entirely of mechanical systems. That said our architecture will always connect to local site and culture.
We endeavor to create sturdy, energy efficient architecture that is acceptable to the client and the community. Whether that architecture is residential architecture, commercial architecture, corporate architecture or hospitality architecture…whether that architecture will be located in the United States, in tropical Asia, in Europe or in the Pacific Islands, our vision is to remain the go-to architecture firm for clients who consistently demand custom-designed, timeless architecture.
