Affordable and Supportive Housing
Overview
Alexander Gorlin Architects is an award-winning firm that has designed affordable and supportive housing for the past two decades. We partner with developers and community groups to create housing that working families and individuals in need can feel proud to call home.
Our buildings are designed to the latest energy efficiency standards and for overall cost effectiveness. In addition to providing architectural services, we also help our clients explore the development potential of sites - ranging from individual buildings to entire neighborhoods - through detailed zoning analyses and master plans.
