Firm Description

VSBA Architects & Planners is an architectural planning and design firm based in Philadelphia. We work with academic, cultural, civic, and other institutional clients to offer a full range of services from planning and programming through design, construction, and occupancy.

VSBA’s approach is collaborative and engaging. We think broadly, weaving together concerns for institutional strategies, cultural diversity, economic impacts, environmental effects, and many other perspectives. We get to know our clients and their diverse communities, from users, administrators, and operators to neighbors and community members, and we help to understand and balance their sometimes competing needs. And we understand that change is certain, so we design environments that can adapt with technologies, users, and missions.
