Our creative determination is fueled by a merging of inspiration, focus and purpose.
Our success flows from the continuous collaboration between our internal and external team-members.
Our individual and collective growth is stimulated by an intellectual hunger, benefitting our clients and projects.
Mindful and responsible design is inherent to our office culture, which permeates through all of our work, extending into our communities.
A supportive and holistic mentorship culture serves as the basis for development, resulting in a positive experience for our wide-range of professionals.
We are an architecture and design firm that captures and transforms each client’s vision. By leading a collaborative effort to understand and develop a project’s goals, we create environments that bring human experience to physical space.
We design at the intersection of where big meets small with projects that inspire. As a result, we build a strong foundation for architecture as part of the larger world. Any project, of any scale, has an impact that resonates within the community around it.
MAD founder Juan C. Matiz, AIA LEED AP leads the firm with origins in 2002 which has developed into a diverse 360-degree architecture and design studio.

We are Purpose driven, Mindful, Fluid & Collaborative, Invested in Curiosity and strongly encourage a Mentorship culture at the firm.
