We start with your vision. We design for the future.

Design is the crux of what we do. Throughout the generations, Page has promised, and delivered, design that makes lives better. We believe buildings are important for what they do and for the positive impact they make on individual lives.

That’s why we have a solution-driven project focus that results in life-enhancing buildings and places. Our multidisciplinary services allow complete integration from conceptualization to engineering to interiors and more, resulting in an improved client experience and final product.

We recognize that good talent can be applied to complex projects regardless of industry. And good talent becomes great when it gains experience in a variety of situations. We create crossover teams so that individuals can work on different projects and share their own expertise and insights with other team members. Our collective commitment to visionary design is reflected in our portfolio of successful, complex projects.

Our work spans the globe, from more than 25 U.S. diplomatic campuses to mission critical facilities in the Middle East to five-star resorts in Africa and beyond. Since Page has multiple offices in the US and affiliates abroad, we have the capability to staff projects onsite as well as set up “follow the sun” workflows to increase efficiency.

While Page is distinguished by our portfolio of successes, we also are distinguished by our full spectrum of architectural and engineering design services. This allows us to provide an integrated “total design” single team approach. Our clients benefit from the highest levels of interdisciplinary coordination, quality control and quick response demanded on today’s highly complex and technically sophisticated projects.

Architecture

Page is known for their well-researched program-driven solutions aided by integrated multidisciplinary expertise and a strategic mindset. We bring global thinking and experience to bear on projects that build communities. Our portfolio reflects a commitment to visionary design, a record of innovation and fresh ideas and most importantly, demonstrated success with complex projects.

We develop a uniquely created design for every project that reflects the building type, client, need and location. We take pride in knowing that a Page project is one of the best possible solutions to the needs of its multiple stakeholders from owner to operator to neighbor.

Engineering

Our in-house engineering experts lead development of the latest industry design codes and standards. Page engineers contribute to progress in safety, wellness, sustainability, energy and carbon neutrality, and increase our impact by working across disciplines. We use a combination of custom tools and Building Information Technology solutions to visualize and communicate how occupants and operations interface with complex integrated building and process systems. Adoption of advances in renewable energy, microgrids, Internet of Things and high-performance systems demonstrate our commitment to socially responsible design. Our multidisciplinary mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection and process engineering practice areas work collaboratively with design and construction partners to bring your concepts to reality.

Interiors

Page believes that well-designed interiors can be a critical force. They help clients accomplish their mission, and improve the quality of people’s lives. Just like our interiors in our own offices, our clients’ interiors serve as positive, consistent visual reinforcements of their own cultural identity.

By combining the skills of our interior designers with those of our architects, planners, engineers, and visualization specialists, we offer our clients a range and quality of single point responsibility found in few other places. Our interiors services range from programming, space-planning and officing studies to the selection of furnishings, finishes and artwork.

Planning / Urban Design

We help our clients evolve, grow, and prosper because our process is informed by research, cutting-edge technology tools, and an appreciation for the unique culture of the people, organizations, and places we serve. Our interdisciplinary team of master planners, urban designers, architects, landscape architects, and programmers are dedicated to supporting the ongoing evolution of our urban areas, encouraging appropriate development and redevelopment suited to the particular conditions of each site we aim to transform. Through urban districts, institutional campuses, innovation districts, long range development plans, master plans, streetscapes and transit-oriented communities, our teams integrate the building blocks of community, sustainability, and resilience into innovative solutions.

Lab Planning / Design

Page specializes in challenging projects for demanding clients throughout the globe. Laboratory facilities are among the most intricate and complex projects.

The unique challenges posed by highly toxic petrochemical corrosion labs, sterile environments for pharmaceutical manufacturing, biohazard high-containment suites, precise environmental control of animal laboratories are commonplace obstacles overcome by our dedicated technical team of architects and engineers every day. Page has specialists equipped with a thorough understanding of the safety standards and scientific equipment requirements foundational to the success of all laboratories.

Branding & Graphics

Our visual identity and experiential designers create brand identities and graphic designs that support how places and environments are experienced. The orchestration of 2-dimensional design work including typography, color, imagery, form, technology and, especially, content, forms this basis. Examples of this work include wayfinding systems, architectural graphics, signage, exhibit design, retail design, and themed or branded spaces. We operate at the intersection of communications and the built environment. We provide architectural and placemaking visioning, and create overall design vocabularies that help clients hone in on the possibilities, character and nature of a project.

Programming

To support clients before and beyond traditional professional services we have a dedicated strategies and analytics team that develop and employ a broad array of tools, techniques, and processes to help our clients make informed project decisions. Our in-house team brings expertise, energy and passion to clarifying client challenges and opportunities sometimes before the nature of or need for a facility or real estate project is confirmed.

Our team members collaborate with Page and consultant specialists, designers, engineers, and clients to clarify goals, assemble information, and evaluate alternatives. Their understanding of business dynamics and organizational complexities allows them to efficiently and effectively facilitate productive discussions and target research. Custom data exploration and visualization differentiates our deliverables, not just to explain and summarize findings, but often also serving as interactive decision-making tools that help bring clients and their stakeholders into the evaluation process. We specialize in capturing and analyzing clients’ existing performance data to identify areas in which operational and spatial efficiency can be improved to save time, resources, space, and money while optimizing performance.

Building Sciences

Page approaches sustainable design through the interdisciplinary lens of building sciences to create higher performing, healthier, more resilient buildings. As one of the first signatories of AIA 2030 Commitment, we are invested in leading the industry towards carbonneutral buildings and advocating for resilient solutions to help our clients prepare for the future.

We believe that intention requires rigor and through our data driven and integrative process, we collaborate early and often to ensure designs are informed by our building performance analysis. With experience across a wide range of environmental certification systems, our multidisciplinary team is well qualified to provide a holistic and comprehensive approach to sustainable design.

Commissioning

Page recognizes the level of investment and importance of facilities that function as designed from the day they open. Our Commissioning service provides this assurance to owners and operators as well as minimizing costly construction rework. This is accomplished through a collaborative process that includes the building owner, design professionals and the general contractor under the guiding hand of the Commissioning Authority.

Our Commissioning staff has developed a solid track record for Page as a Certified Commissioning Firm (CCF). The exacting standards of our teams of professional engineers, architects and field technicians in service of our clients support delivery of construction quality.

Page also performs Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing (TAB) in accordance with NEBB standards. We are an independent testing firm with absolutely no affiliation with manufacturers, factory representatives, vendors/providers, contractors or installers of HVACrelated equipment and systems.

Highrise Enhancing city skylines.

Tall buildings hold a special place in the American imagination. To dwell among the clouds is a common aspiration; the irresistible promise of a life lived above the fray of the city below, while simultaneously enjoying its vibrancy and conveniences.

Skyscrapers are complex machines for living; vertical cities within a single block, elegantly composed of discrete program elements. The base of a tall building must be conceived to provide not only a welcome oasis for its inhabitants, but also to contribute to the culture, life and vibrancy of the neighborhood. Building amenities must support and enhance the life of the building, and be designed to differentiate the tower within the marketplace. Areas of respite and relaxation must be integrated in ways that foster both community and privacy. Connecting all of these elements are state-of-the-art building infrastructures which make possible the highest level of service for the inhabitants within.

Above all, however, a tall building must be an icon: embodying the aspirations of its creator, enhancing the city’s skyline and instilling a sense of pride within its residents.

Page designers understand the urban lifestyle and have been designing award-winning office, residential and hospitality projects across the United States and globally for decades. The firm offers a comprehensive depth of services from initial project planning to the final details of the resident/guest experience and our range of capabilities is unique in both talent and breadth. New construction projects include highrise office, highrise residential, and midrise mixed-use/multifamily.

Fountain Place, the icon of emergent 1986 downtown Dallas, has long stood as a welcome sentinel for all visitors approaching from the west and south. The original master plan for Fountain Place envisioned an identical tower to the west, rotated 90 degrees. The AMLI Fountain Place tower seeks to fulfill the spirit of the master plan by creating a 46-story residential building that is sympathetic in massing to its neighbor while celebrating the uniqueness of scale and identity that are the hallmarks of residential towers.

Like the office tower, AMLI Fountain Place sits atop a 192’ square podium. Above the garage podium, the tower rotates 45 degrees in order to maximize the views towards Uptown and the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge. The top of the tower has been artfully shaped with tapered glazing in order to create a dynamic and sympathetic profile; a contextually appropriate neighbor to the office tower. As such, AMLI Fountain Place will both inherit and enhance the cache of Fountain Place, completing the masterplan and enlivening the district by injecting much-needed diversity of use to west downtown Dallas.

AMLI Fountain Place will be one of the signature towers of the Dallas skyline with its glass façade, crystalline form and faceted top.

Like the city that spawned it, 70 Rainey is a dynamic blend of sophisticated elegance and laid back informality and warmth. The crisp, finely detailed 34-story residential tower is sheathed predominantly in glass curtain wall, providing each of the 164 condos with panoramic views of the Colorado River, the Austin skyline and the Hill Country beyond while also reflecting the ever-changing light and color of the big Texas sky. Generous balconies punctuate and enliven each smooth, carefully crafted facade.

As the refined residential floors of the tower merge with Rainey Street below the building revels in the quirky character of its iconic neighborhood. Upper floors provide for a variety of condo-units that range from studios to three bedrooms. The building culminates with two-story penthouses. The perfect view orientation of the upper levels, looking straight down the length of the river, twists back at the base to align with the historic street grid. This structural feat is accomplished through a stealth move that also maximizes parking in the building’s column grid.

Materials like wood, concrete and oxidized steel add a tactile dimension at pedestrian levels where porches and terraces encourage direct interaction with the street. Rich gardens on the amenity levels invite that laid-back lifestyle Austin is known for while also, along with suspended planters on the garage facades, linking the building directly the lush adjacent parkland. The building’s base responds to the dynamic street life with a variety of entries to amenity spaces including bars and restaurants that provide continuity for the culture of the street. The project achieved an Austin Energy Green Building 4-Star rating.

As North Austin continues to attract tech giants like Apple, dense, mixeduse developments are transforming the area with amenities that range from sports facilities and luxury shopping to residential and workplace options. The growing North Burnet/Gateway corridor identified by the City of Austin promises more density as the area’s popularity continues to surge. Arena Tower is designed to be an iconic 19-story, mixed-use office building whose amenities will include new soccer stadium neighbor and the nearby vibrant community of the Domain. A series of terraces that step back from the street and culminate in two interlocking, grey-blue-glass-clad towers, the building is designed to announce and anchor the emerging stadium district.

Generous retail fronts the primary street and leads to a monumental lobby that spills out onto an outdoor plaza and recreation area. A modern-day workplace, the blurred boundaries of the interior and exterior spaces that characterize the lobby and coffee bar area are emphasized again at the 7,500-square-foot sky terrace, which welcomes tenants to their area of the building. The outdoor terrace will wrap a tenant lounge characterized by floor-to-ceiling glass walls that embrace the views. The amenity spaces will include a conference facility able host more than 200 people and a fitness center featuring a cycling studio and a juice bar—as well as outdoor yoga facilities on the deck.

The design aims to engage the community by contributing to the street life of the stadium district. It also supports the wellness of its future tenants with ample opportunities to enjoy the outdoors and take advantage of the on-site exercise facilities.

The 19-story high rise building housing The University of Texas System (UT System) Administration Office is located in downtown Austin on stateowned land along 7th Street. It is a replacement project, maintaining the existing proximity to UT Austin and the Texas Capitol and serving as the consolidated facility for all departments that make up The University of Texas System Administration.

Page partnered with UT System to deliver a Class A building that met developer-led industry construction standards and commercial market construction costs. In concert with this effort, Page experts in workplace innovation and organization helped the client rethink the way in which discrete departments share space and to ensure that the building provided an optimized floor plate for maximum flexibility both from first occupancy and into the long-range life of the facility. The new, efficient facility is projected to save $2-$5 million annually and generate net present value savings of over $50 million in the next 30 years.

The completed structure includes approximately 365,000 gross square feet of office space along with eight levels of above-grade parking and one level of below-grade secured parking, providing 728 spaces. The building includes offices for the Chancellor and Board of Regents, a central conference facility adapted for videoconferencing, a 200-seat boardroom, a large multi-purpose presentation space, UT System office and meeting spaces, an employee wellness center, and limited retail space at the ground level. The project has achieved LEED Silver certification.
