The MdeAS Experience
Our firm is committed to promoting and improving the health and wellness of our people, giving employees access to wellness tools, virtual seminars, and personalized coaching. With a focus on developing young architects, MdeAS offers a mentorship program and internship opportunities within the office. We are proud to contribute to the development of tomorrow’s leaders by encouraging our designers to pursue their passion.
Culture
We are a diverse team of architects and designers who share a passion for creating modern architecture. Our studio welcomes talent from all over the world with a common goal of designing tomorrow’s built environment. We value collaboration and work closely as a team, drawing on the different backgrounds and skills of each member of our studio. We believe that the best outcomes result from a problem-solving process that fully engages the abilities and imagination of all involved.
Diversity & Inclusivity
MdeAS is committed to fostering, cultivating, and preserving a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Our human capital is the most valuable asset we have. The collective sum of the individual differences, life experiences, knowledge, inventiveness, innovation, self-expression, unique capabilities, and talent that our employees invest in their work represents a significant part of not only our culture but also our reputation and firm’s achievement.
We embrace and encourage our employees’ differences in age, color, disability, ethnicity, family or marital status, gender identity or expression, language, national origin, physical and mental ability, political affiliation, race, religion, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, veteran status, and other characteristics that make our employees unique.
Our diversity initiatives are applicable—but not limited—to our practices and policies on recruitment and selection; compensation and benefits; professional development and training; social and recreational programs; and the ongoing development of a work environment built on the premise of gender and diversity equity that encourages and enforces:
Respectful communication and cooperation between all employees.
Teamwork and employee participation, permitting the representation of all groups and employee perspectives.
Work/life balance through flexible work schedules to accommodate employees’ varying needs.
Employer and employee contributions to the communities we serve to promote a greater understanding and respect for diversity.
“We build our architects like we build our buildings - from the ground up. It’s our responsibility to give [architects] the tools and skills that they need to continue on with the MdeAS legacy.”
Community Involvement
At MdeAS, we are more than architects; we are stewards of our community. Team members are encouraged to make the most of involvement opportunities such as joining professional associations, attending architectural events, and participating in outreach programs. By getting involved in our community, we are able to grow our network, gain industry knowledge, and create a lasting impact that goes beyond architecture.
Curiosity, compassion, and collaboration are values cultivated at MdeAS and at the center of all our work. Ultimately, we strive to build better architects, better spaces, and a better world for future generations. Read more about some of our events and initiatives by checking out our stories.
