Patriquin Architects is a New Haven-based team of architects and designers working across Connecticut and the United States on various new buildings and transformations of existing spaces. Established in 2010, the office has expertise in numerous institutional, educational, commercial, and residential project typologies. We have been recognized across the industry for exceptional achievements in design and sustainability and are leaders in advancing equity, diversity, and justice issues in the design and construction industry. We are community architects with strong ties to our historic, Passive House-certified office building at 20 Grand Avenue, the oldest freestanding commercial building in the city, built in 1816. In collaboration with our clients, engineering consultants, and construction partners, we create successful and lasting designs for the public good.
