Pickard Chilton delivers architectural design services to clients worldwide. Throughout their careers, the firm’s principals—Jon Pickard FAIA, RIBA, William Chilton FAIA, RIBA and Anthony Markese FAIA, RIBA, LEED AP—have led the design of some of the world’s most significant and recognized buildings.

Projects include corporate headquarters, commercial office towers, mixed-use complexes, healthcare facilities and academic centers. In all of the firm’s work, it endeavors to bring unexpected value to its clients through excellence in service and design.

Its buildings are noted for their people-oriented spaces that weave vitality and liveliness into their urban context, as well as their distinctive modern forms that establish memorable identities, and become new landmarks defining the urban habitat.

The firm’s principals collaborate on the design of each project, supported by a close-knit staff of architects and designers that strives for more than architectural excellence. The goal, with every project, is to create an engaging environment that fully satisfies the clients’ ambitions while exceeding the expectations of those who live, visit and work in and around our projects.

For all projects, the firm collaborates with experienced Architects of Record to meet the unique needs of each client. This ensures that clients have access to the most highly qualified professionals for all aspects of design, project management, building technology and construction administration.

Our commitment to environmental stewardship not only creates built environments that are livable and workplaces that are healthy but also results in innovative and elegant architecture of long term value.  Recognized with over two dozen awards for sustainable design, Pickard Chilton projects totaling over 25 million gsf have been designated or targeted LEED-Gold or its equivalent since 2006. The firm is signatory to the AIA 2030 Commitment program and its goal of realizing carbon-neutral buildings by the year 2030.

Established in 1997, the firm practices from its New Haven, Connecticut, studio located on the town green across from Yale University.
