Established in 1992, Pei Partnership Architects is a full service, international practice whose broad areas of expertise focus on a single goal: design excellence. Founding Partners Chien Chung Pei and Li Chung Pei, sons of I.M. Pei and for many years key members of his firm, adhere to the design commitment, innovation and distinction they gained in over 40 years of combined experience at I.M. Pei & Partners and in the sixteen years since the creation of Pei Partnership Architects. This accumulated growth and knowledge, exemplified in the successful completion of many complex buildings worldwide, defines the work of Pei Partnership Architects: respect for past achievements and responsiveness to present needs in the pursuit of enduring architecture. Our firm's highly accomplished licensed architects and designers work together to produce thoughtful building designs that are technically sound, site specific, and environmentally aware responses to the unique design challenges of our time. The Partners are supported by senior design and management principals and a corps of talented designers who extend and strengthen the capabilities of the firm into projects of different programs and scales. This diverse and multidisciplinary approach insures that each commission is understood and explored for its unique properties and opportunities while drawing upon a seasoned record of construction experience including the careful oversight of a client's budget and schedule. Pei Partnership Architects has been engaged to design high-rise towers, healthcare facilities, institutional buildings, museums and concert halls as well as large scale urban master plans and waterfront parks. Among the firm's projects currently in construction are the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Headquarters in Beijing, the Chinese Chancery in Washington, D.C., a luxury condominium apartment in New York City, the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, a mixed-use development in Dubai and a theater and science center in Macao. Pei Partnership Architects fully supports sustainable ("green") building design. Working with the industry's leading engineers, the firm balances the initial cost of construction against the long-term advantages of conservation. In this time of global warming and dwindling resources, 'sustainability' is not only a watchword but an imperative to be heeded by all responsible professionals. We believe that sustainable building design can be shown to provide all projects with economic benefits of energy, water, and materials savings as well as reduced maintenance and operational costs. To ensure the successful delivery of each project, the Partners remain actively involved in both the design and supervision from the initial stages of programming and planning through construction and post-construction. We encourage full and open collaboration with our client teams, and believe that close dialogue throughout the design process leads to successful projects. lasting satisfaction and repeat commissions. Pei Partnership Architects is headquartered in New York City with a representative office in Beijing, PRC.
