Supporting the professional growth of emerging architects is central to who we are — and we’re honored that the AIA continues to recognize that commitment across both of our offices. Our Providence studio has earned the AIA New England Emerging Professional Friendly Firm designation for the seventh consecutive year, and our Philadelphia office has been named an AIA Pennsylvania EPiC Firm for the second year running.
These recognitions evaluate firm culture and support in areas critical to early-career development — from mentorship and path-to-licensure support to the breadth of opportunity young architects are given to lead and grow. At a studio founded on the belief that exceptional work comes from the combined talents of many, investing in emerging professionals isn’t separate from our mission — it’s how we live it.
We’re grateful to the AIA for this recognition, and proud of the team members across both offices who make Union the kind of place where the next generation of architects can thrive.
