Featured In…Glen Irani Architects is a multidisciplinary practice focusing primarily on architecture, landscape architecture, furniture and product design. Each project is a reflection of the intense research into the human, environmental, functional and technological factors that affect pertinent, contemporary design concepts. The rigorous development of these concepts results in designs that achieve enduring beauty, contextual harmony and innovative functionality while expressing the ever-evolving artistic values of the architect.

Through the extension of Irani / Projects, our project construction arm, we have seamlessly integrated the building process with the design process offered by Glen Irani Architects. The coupling of the two disciplines has proven its relevance through the course of numerous projects by enabling the continuation of our design process, the refinement of detail and the ultimate control of quality and craftsmanship for the duration of construction.

In 1995 Glen Irani Architects was established with a focus on smaller scale commercial, cultural and residential projects. The principal, Glen Irani AIA, received a Bachelor of Architecture degree from California State Polytechnic University. Following his formal education he moved on to the noted architectural firms of the late John Lautner, Skidmore Owings & Merrill and Richard Meier & Partners. At these firms his involvement in projects such as Pacific Atlas Plaza (Los Angeles), The J Paul Getty Center Site & Gardens, The Museum of Television and Radio and the Gagosian Gallery was critical to the development of his professional skills and values. The work of Glen Irani Architects includes exclusive residential buildings and interiors, art galleries, office buildings, retail buildings and interiors, manufacturing and distribution facilities, gardens, and shopping centers.
