The firm was founded in 2006 by partners Adrian Smith, Gordon Gill, and Robert Forest with in offices in Chicago and Beijing. Architects also have expertise in a range of building types, including supertall towers, large-scale mixed-use complexes, corporate offices, exhibition facilities, cultural facilities and museums, civic and public spaces, hotels and residential complexes, institutional projects and high-tech laboratory facilities. By using this principle in the design of buildings, we can create structures that not only reduce their negative environmental impact, but in some cases, virtually eliminate it altogether.ĪS+GG's practice includes designers with extensive experience in multiple disciplines, including technical architecture, interior design, urban planning and sustainable design. Such a pluralistic approach acknowledges the interaction among building systems as well as between those systems and the natural environment, and seeks to improve each individual system's performance. It's predicated on the understanding that everything within the built and natural environment is connected, and that a building's design should stem from an understanding of its role within that context - locally, regionally and globally.
This approach, which takes into consideration building orientation, daylighting, generation of wind power, solar absorption, and a site's geothermal properties, represents a fundamental change in the design process, in which form facilitates performance. We use a holistic, integrated design approach that emphasizes symbiotic relationship with the natural environment - a philosophy we've termed "global environmental contextualism." Our office is dedicated to the creation of new paradigms for sustainable development. He is also the mastermind behind other projects like as Chicago’s Trump International Hotel & Tower, Shanghai’s Jin Mao Tower, and Nanjing’s Zifeng Tower. Smith is the architect behind the world’s tallest tower, the Burj Khalifa, as well as the Jeddah Tower, which is expected to exceed it. We strive to create designs that aid society, advance modern technology, sustain the environment and inspire those around us to improve our world. Adrian Smith is a well-known architect in the United States. The firm approaches each project, regardless of size or scale, with an understanding that architecture has a unique power to influence civic life. Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture is dedicated to the design of high-performance, energy-efficient and sustainable architecture on an international scale.
