Ibarra Rosano Design Architects

The studio

Luis Ibarra and Teresa Rosano (AIA, LEED AP) are native Tucsonans and graduates of the University of Arizona College of Architecture. In 1999, they founded Ibarra Rosano Design Architects, and have since earned national recognition as one of Arizona's top design firms for their modern desert architecture. Their work has been published internationally and has received over fifty regional and national design awards. They were selected by Architecture Magazine as one of nine firms to represent their state in its issue on "the Arizona School", and their work was exhibited at the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art in its architecture and design show featuring work from six firms based in the southwest region. They were recently honored with Residential Architect's 2008 "Rising Star" National Leadership Award for their body of work to date.

Architecture is space. This is the basic premise of their work, and they are committed to the belief in the power of space to nurture and inspire. They believe the goal of design is to create a structure that lasts, not just by the quality of its construction, but also by the timeless beauty of its design - an architecture that is informed by the past, responsive to the present and aware of the future.

Getting started with Ibarra Rosano Design Architects

What to expect when you contact an architect — general guidance from Architects List.

The first conversation: Most residential architects start with a short call or meeting to hear about your project and see whether it’s a good fit for both of you.
What to have ready: Where the project is, roughly what you’d like to build, and a budget and timing if you know them. A few photos of work you like help too. “Not sure yet” is a fine answer.
Fees: How fees work varies by firm. Some first meetings are free; some firms charge for a site visit or feasibility study. It’s fine to ask Ibarra Rosano Design Architects directly.
