vir.mueller architects

Founded in 2003 by Christine Mueller and Pankaj Vir Gupta (AIA member), vir.mueller architects combines architectural research, education and design practice. Before opening their own firm, the two partners gained experience working on residential, commercial and institutional projects for renowned architectural studios in the United States, Europe and India.

The architecture created by vir.mueller architects strives to create specific visual and kinetic relationships, taking into account cultural, geographic and historical contexts. The creative process plays a key role in their design approach, ensuring that each project responds to the individual nature of the client's program, location and budget.

At every stage and scale of projects, the studio focuses on the integrity of materials and craftsmanship, building a fundamental connection between the physical environment and the art of architecture. Their work has won numerous awards and been published internationally, exemplifying a thoughtful approach to design.
