About Us


Expertise

We at Robinson Design Inc. are architects and engineers that primarily specialize in the design of buildings for the elderly and multi-family housing.  Our staff is lead by Mr. John Robinson, who is both a Registered Architect and a Registered Professional Engineer.  Over the past thirty-five years he has designed more than 100 projects, ranging in size from $500,000 to $20,000,000.

In order to provide our clients with appropriately designed facilities, our work utilizes findings from architectural research.  Mr. Robinson has authored technical articles and presented instructional seminars on Multi-Family Housing, the Design of Facilities for the Elderly and Solar Energy.

Our in-house design team has experience in all facets of architectural design and engineering. Our out-of-office design team includes specialists in civil, structural, mechanical and electrical engineering and we have on-going relationships with  special consultants in interior design and historic preservation.
