Paul Lukez Architecture (PLA) was established in Boston in 1992. Its charter is based on the principle that, by listening carefully to our clients and working collaboratively with them and our design team, we can create inspiring, transformative, sustainable places for people to enjoy. Is to bring innovation, economy, and beauty to sustainable architectural and urban design.
Services
Our projects range from small to large but are unique in the special design opportunities they present. We aim to understand all we can about project goals, clients' needs, and the integration of the latest architectonic, ecological and environmental concepts and technologies into the fulfillment of a client's particular project requirements.
Dwelling goes beyond occupying living space. It implies a commitment and connection to a place, people, family, and community. It contributes to forming the identity of residents and their communities. As such, we aim to create dwellings that reflect the very personal qualities of each person, family, and community, and to design places that allow our clients to live their lives in harmony with their aspirations and needs.
PLA believes that the introduction of new and advanced sustainable concepts and technologies offer designers unparalleled opportunities in creatively fusing the technical and performance-based advantages of these new systems with poetic and aesthetic possibilities. Our projects seek to find new ways of seamlessly integrating technology with new creative expressions for shaping built environments.
Since its inception, PLA has worked on urban design projects that build on a site's rich history and ecology. We do so with the aim of making places for people and communities. Central to our award-winning designs is an understanding of the deeply rooted qualities of a place, its landscape, and communities that inhabit a site.

The PLA team has a combination of commitment, enthusiasm, talent, and diligence which is rare and wonderful. They create elegant solutions based on a holistic understanding of how architecture integrates with culture and program. It is always our sincere pleasure at Acentech to work with the PLA team!

I can't say enough good things about working with Paul and the quality of the design he did for us. Twenty years ago we hired him to customize the interior of a home that was under construction. I picked Paul because I saw a sample of his work in a book and loved his design philosophy - modern, asymmetrical with warm colors and wood. During the design process he constantly solicited my input and I constantly told him to do what he wanted. The result was fabulous and to this day, guests comment on how beautiful our home is. Great design has staying power.
Not only do we love the work he did, but

I am a lighting consultant who has worked alongside Paul and his team on a wide variety of projects, ranging from small renovations to major new construction, residential to retail and commercial. He and his staff are all very detail-oriented and collaborative, with great creative vision and a clear passion for their profession, which are inspiring qualities and a pleasure to engage. Their many long-standing client relationships are ample testament to the quality of the end results and the value of the process. I particularly appreciate that Paul mentors many young and emerging professionals early

I had the unpleasant opportunity to have a professional relationship with Paul and I feel bad for people that work for him. The only reason the project was completed at all is due to the people he has tricked into working for him. If you are thinking about working with this firm, don't. Instead, just take all that money and spend it on vodka, drink it all in one night that way you might get some small amount of the value you have to throw away to work with PLA.

Despite the very odd review of PLA by "Jack Slinger"(?) and his vodka, we'd like you to know that we had a very positive experience with Paul Lukez and his colleagues in the design and building of our beautiful, award-winning, house. Paul and his talented team worked with us from the selection of our building site, through our choice of engineers, materials, and contractor, to move in. Check out our house at Paul's website. We recommend PLA very highly.
