Max Adams

LEED AP
Associate Principal, Chicago

In Max’s world, the creative journey is not just a passion but a profound fascination. Growing up with a mother who is a painter and potter, producing art has always been present in his life. This exposure gave him an understanding that creativity is born out of investigation, experience, and hard work. Max found architectural design to be his calling because of its exploration of creativity that improves people’s lives.

Max loves working on projects that touch the public in some way, whether that be projects in education, healthcare, or science and technology. He believes that our work needs to respect the human condition, how we interact with each other, and our environment.
