Upward Architects was founded in 2021 by a team that had already worked together for more than five years. They came together with a shared belief that good design should occur on any budget — and a combined 110+ years of experience to back it up.
Our design portfolio spans a range of project types, including office, retail, religious, educational, industrial, storage, multi-family, corporate interiors, and tenant improvements. Whether a small retail building, a large corporate headquarters, or a national prototype rollout program, we partner with our clients and their teams for the duration of a project.
Licensed in Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, Idaho, Texas, Minnesota, and Michigan, Upward Architects serves clients across the country. Our continued growth is a testament to the relationships we build and the trust our clients place in us to bring their visions to life.
Upward Architects' philosophy is that good design should occur at any budget. With a focus centered on client satisfaction, we engage our creativity and construction knowledge to collaborate with contractors, ensuring innovative design solutions are delivered on time and on budget.
Our receptive nature means that our clients' integral values, functional needs, financial restraints, and aesthetic desires are our top priority. Every project begins with listening — understanding the vision and practical requirements that will make the project successful.
Integrity, quality, and service are the foundations of everything we do. We treat every project — regardless of size — with the same attention to detail and commitment to excellence. Our clients return to us project after project because they trust us to deliver on our promises.
