VIA - a Perkins Eastman Studio Information

For over 30 years VIA Architecture has focused on creating sustainable communities through architecture, infrastructure design and urban planning. Founded in 1984 in Vancouver, BC VIA expanded to the U.S. in Seattle in 2001 and opened a third office in the Bay Area (now in Oakland) in 2014. Our three offices work collaboratively to share ideas and support across all aspects of our operations – from design delivery to thought research - and currently employ more than 70 architecture, planning, design and business professionals. As of July 2021, we are pleased to announce the merger of Perkins Eastman and VIA Architecture. This union of our two firms provides an opportunity for collaboration across our firms’ disciplines and studios. With the merger, VIA is now known as ‘VIA – A Perkins Eastman Studio.’ VIA will continue to build on its legacy of leading city-shaping projects, with expertise in infrastructure architecture, transit systems alignment design, multifamily design, transit-oriented development, and urban planning.
