Building on the trailblazing success of legendary Founder Victor Gruen, we continue to provide creative solutions through superior planning, architecture, retail architecture, transportation planning and design, urban design, interior design, and landscape architecture services. Our impact on the profession and the world continues into the future under the leadership of Managing Partner Michael A.

At the heart of Gruen Associates’ leadership group are the “Associates.” Developed over many years, the Associates Group contributes to the strength and capability of the firm.
