At its root, architecture is an equilibrium of the relationships between space, form and environment. All our designs strive to positively impact the lives of all occupants and reduce the amount of energy and other resources utilized on a daily basis. At the heart of "sustainability" is a balance between human wellbeing, energy efficiency and environmental responsibility.
Our process utilizes appropriate project specific sustainable systems to ensure maximum energy efficiency and environmental responsibility. Our approach to optimizing sustainability might be best described as client specific "Common Sense Sustainability."

The human experience, comfort and the built environment are at the heart of Murray's culture and fundamental design projects that balance human wellbeing with economic and environmental concerns. Sustainable design is a basic responsibility, and our process minimizes overall environmental impacts, optimizes whole building efficiencies and has long lasting health benefits on those who occupy the space.
The design of the one-of-a-kind cutting-edge Training Arena was inspired by a skate park, another "alternative" sport. The Harrisburg Housing Authority, Gardner Capital, a national housing developer headquartered is Saint Louis Missouri; RB Development a BFW affiliate, and the Bethel AME Church in Harrisburg have proposed a 49-unit affordable senior development.
The Harrisburg Housing Authority, Gardner Capital, a national housing developer headquartered is Saint Louis Missouri; RB Development a BFW affiliate, and the Bethel AME Church in Harrisburg have proposed a 49-unit affordable senior development. A new performance venue creates a gathering space for the entire school and a collaborative resource for the Lancaster-area community.
The design of the one-of-a-kind cutting-edge Training Arena was inspired by a skate park, another "alternative" sport. The MTC was expanded a second time due to the College's high demand for its Welding Degree and Certification Programs. The intrinsic challenge of this project was integrating a new Learning Commons that responds to the 21st century student while keeping the context of a restored 1923 historic library.
This project expanded the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency (PHFA) headquarters by nearly 40,000 square feet. This project was a community focused campus and to not look like a typical municipal building or a small post office. The new 2 story addition tripled the headquarters' size, expanding services provided to all the Commonwealth's Counties.

Murray Associates Architects have a high standard of professionalism when it comes to designing with integrity, dedication to sustainable design practices, and providing exemplary service to their clients. I have worked with them in two different capacities: As a representative of an engineering firm they invited to join their team on a high-profile project, and now as an occasional provider of marketing communication services. They run a tight ship, value their clients and employees, and are a pleasure to do business with under any circumstance.
