In the 15 years since its inception the Connecticut based Christiaan Dinkeloo Associates L.L.C. has grown steadily into a multi discipline firm that offers architecture, interior design, site development and corporate security design for a widely diverse clientele. These projects have included office buildings, museums, hotels, country clubs, retail space, multi family housing and private residences. Prior to establishing the architectural firm of Christiaan Dinkeloo Associates, Christiaan worked side by side with his father, architect John Dinkeloo, and his partner Kevin Roche. Created from the office of Eero Saarinen in 1961, the architectural firm Kevin Roche John Dinkeloo and Associates completed some of Saarinen’s most prestigious work including the TWA terminal in New York. the Dulles Airport, and the St. Louis Arch and then went on to establish itself as one of the most creative forces in architecture’s modern movement. Christiaan Dinkeloo worked with his father for ten years on such notable projects as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York; the Denver Center for Performing Arts, the Union Carbide Headquarters, and the highly acclaimed General Foods Headquarters,. After John Dinkeloo’s sudden death in 1981, Christiaan continued work with the Roche Dinkeloo firm until 1990 when he established the architecture and design firm of Christiaan Dinkeloo Associates, L.L.C. The exceptional design driven ethic fostered in years of practice within the Kevin Roche John Dinkeloo organization has manifested itself in the designs of Christiaan Dinkeloo Associates. Projects of every scale and complexity receive the same degree of thought and sense of energy and purpose in the derivation and development of their ultimate design concepts. Christiaan Dinkeloo Associates, L.L.C. continues to be a growth oriented firm which strives for a diversity of commissions which add to the multiformity of the firm and the design work that it produces.
