Profile

Jones Associates Architects LLC was established by Michael D. Jones, AIA and focuses on the design of urban mixed-use buildings and in creating a carefully crafted urban architecture that has a significant positive impact on its urban neighborhoods.

Our design approach rests on our commitment to an Architecture that meets and exceeds our client's expectations. We believe that buildings should fit their context, but that they should also be expressive of their epoch, and we believe strongly in the value of modern architecture. Each of our projects represents a fusion of our client's needs and desires that responds uniquely to the specifics of its site, program and budget.
