DRAW Collective is a full service architectural firm specializing in projects that matter in the lives of people - focusing on design for learning and wellness. Our team of architects, interior designers, and project managers are passionate about the work we do, elevating the conversation around design and providing invaluable client service. DRAW strives to assemble the best team to meet each individual client’s needs, resulting in long-term relationships that can last generations. Our client services often span multiple classifications of design, but fit these common threads of everyday life: Health + Wellness, Learning, Working and Living. For more than 65 years, we have provided real value to clients by delivering thoughtful, detail-oriented design for a full range of building projects. Whether a complicated operating suite, an inspirational University structure, a sustainable elementary school, an efficient office environment, or a thoughtful place of worship, our success has been achieved through collaboration, experience, and a dedication to providing sound architectural design and a high standard for client service. Formed in 1945, and located at the same South Hills Pittsburgh address since 1950, DRAW Collective is a professional corporation owned by working architects. The DRAW Collective portfolio of projects is varied over our many years, but we are particularly proud of our consistency of realizing our clients’ goals in each project and product.
