Logical, rational design is just the beginning

I design buildings that are simple, functional, sustainable, and contemporary

Robert Gray Architect LLC is a full service architectural firm. The Firm (formerly Shank and Gray Architects) has provided building design services in Charlottesville, central Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic region for over 35 years. My primary objective has consistently been buildings that are simple, functional, sustainable, and contemporary.

I offer:

Every project is client driven, individually sited and designed to be enduring, energy efficient, modern and contextually compatible.

I have broad experience in a variety of building types including restaurants, light industrial, highly technical office environments and I maintain an ongoing enthusiasm for spirited, high performance residential design at all scales.

Toward that end I have consistently produced direct, understated and deceptively simple buildings which are easy to occupy and maintain. Learn more >>
