YUAG Advancement Office

Established in 1977, Cesar Pelli & Associates is an architectural practice that works with corporate, government and private clients to design major public spaces, museums, airports, laboratories, performing arts centers, academic buildings, hotels, offices, residential towers and mixed-use projects. The number of commissions the firm accepts is carefully limited to ensure a high degree of personal involvement by the principals. The work of Cesar Pelli & Associates is not constrained by a personal style or a signature that would limit the architecture; instead, it tries to celebrate the unique characteristics of each project. With this approach, the firm has designed several exceptional buildings in the United States and worldwide. The AIA awarded Cesar Pelli & Associates its 1989 Firm Award in recognition of standard setting work in architectural design and Cesar Pelli received the Gold Medal from the AIA in 1995.
