Beautiful. Sustainable.
We deliver both.

Our Firm

For over thirty years, Peter Quinn Architects has elevated the design of beloved and historic neighborhoods, one building at a time. Our business is built on longstanding relationships with our clients, consultants, and partners in municipal government.

Our Approach

Since the beginning, we have prioritized understanding and integrating the most sustainable and cost-effective practices. Challenges inspire us. For instance, many of our projects involve difficult site configurations and complex municipal restrictions. Others demand creative solutions for restoring historic structures or imagining the adaptive reuse of older buildings. This is all part of PQA.
