KlingStubbins is an internationally recognized design firm with over sixty years of experience on a wide range of projects. We are over five hundred

people strong, with offices in Cambridge, MA; Philadelphia, PA; Raleigh, NC; San Francisco, CA; Washington, DC and Beijing, China. KlingStubbins

provides professional services in all major disciplines within the realms of architecture, engineering, interiors, planning and landscape architecture.

Our areas of market focus and specialization include Corporate/Commercial, Government, Health Care, Higher Education, Hospitality/Entertainment,

Institutional/Civic, Mission Critical, and Research and Development. Our work is unconstrained by a strict architectural vocabulary; ungoverned by a

single guiding principle - except a desire to realize architecture of distinction.

KlingStubbins has a remarkable history. Two firms separately founded decades ago—Vincent G. Kling, FAIA, founded his firm in Philadelphia in 1946

and Hugh A. Stubbins, FAIA, founded his in Cambridge in 1949. Contemporaries, both established very successful practices through the decades, each

garnering major design awards throughout. Both firms became noted for technically sophisticated and innovative projects—Hugh Stubbins with such

renowned works as the Berlin Congress Hall, Citicorp Center in New York, the Federal Reserve Bank in Boston, and the Landmark Tower in Yokohama

(Japan’s tallest building); Vincent Kling with Lankenau Hospital in suburban Philadelphia, Bell Laboratories in New Jersey, and several office towers and

cityscape in downtown Philadelphia for then City Planner Ed Bacon. Rounding out these successes, in the 1970s Vincent Kling acquired an engineering

firm and brought to the firm a comparable dedication to excellence in engineering, particularly for sophisticated projects requiring seamless and

imaginative integration with the architecture. Both firms have each won hundreds of prestigious design awards. Stubbins also received The American

Institute of Architects’ Firm of the Year Award. In 2007, the two firms merged to form KlingStubbins.

KlingStubbins is a national leader in sustainable design, consistent with our commitment to support the communities within which we work and live.

We are innovators in project delivery, including Building Information Modeling technology. We have finished over 4500 projects in 40 states within U.S.

and 67 countries overseas. Above all, we are focused on the needs of our clients, integrating their business drivers into the creative process, resulting

in projects of enduring value. Recently established KlingStubbins Beijing office will be focused on projects in China and will coordinate the efforts of

the US offices within Asia. Our presence will allow us to bring many years of professional expertise to support the continued prosperity in China and to

contribute throughout the Asian Pacific region.

Profile & History

In 2011, KlingStubbins Inc. merged with Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. Jacobs is one of the world’s largest and most

diverse providers of professional technical services. With 2011 revenues of over $10 billion, we offer full-spectrum support to industrial, commercial, and

governmental clients across multiple markets. Jacobs successfully delivers the full breadth of building services – planning, architecture, engineering,

interior design, construction management, program management, and design-build – to a diversified base of leading public and private clients across the

globe. We offer design and construction-related services for new buildings as well as provide expansion, renovation, and refurbishment of existing facilities.

Specialized capabilities include energy and power, master planning, design, and commissioning services.

Our mixed-use practice includes commercial development projects incorporating retail, restaurant, office, residential, hotel, sports, and entertainment uses

in a wide range of creative combinations or “mixes.”

Our practice is founded on a “real world” understanding of what is required for financial success and enduring market value that comes from extensive

involvement with real estate development projects at a wide range of scales.

While our practice integrates master planning, landscape architecture, architecture, interior design and engineering, we seek to build collaborative teams

that provide comprehensive solutions to our client’s development challenges. Our services also include market analysis, sustainable design, and energy

analysis, as well as research and recommendations regarding project funding. Our goal is to identify the unique place marking qualities of each project

opportunity. Whether driven by transit-oriented development, urban mixed use, repositioned and repurposed commercial real estate or new international

master planning and mixed use design strategies, we strive to create vibrant, pedestrian-oriented public spaces and a synergy of uses that makes each

environment special and uniquely tailored to local culture.

KlingStubbins currently has over 150 LEED Accredited Professionals on staff. As a design firm for some of the world’s largest entities, KlingStubbins

recognizes the global reach and ultimate impact we possess to change the circumstances of our environment. We fulfill this obligation by

encouraging clients to view sustainability as an inherent and pervasive component of the design process. This philosophy is realized through

our integrated approach to sustainable design; as an A/E/I firm, leaders from each discipline collaborate to resolve high performance building

issues, addressing the interrelationships between building siting, exterior envelope, system design, and energy and resource consumption.

KlingStubbins has instituted several levels of action to promote, advance, and achieve a comprehensive understanding of sustainable design

practice throughout the firm:

Education – A corporate member of the US Green Building Council (USGBC), KlingStubbins established our own High Performance Green

Building Council in 1997. The committee meets monthly to share and advise colleagues on project-specific “green” criteria. This offers a forum

for cross-fertilization of ideas and concepts between sustainable projects under way in each of the firm’s offices. Resources such as USGBC’s LEED

(Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) checklists, reference guides, and application calculation sheets are available for download on

KlingStubbins’ Intranet. In addition, periodic in-house training sessions are held to inform and prepare designers and management for the US

Green Building Council’s LEED Accredited Professional exams.

Exploration – Modeling studies are actively performed to simulate energy conditions and analyze design alternatives for ongoing projects.

Strategies such as daylighting and envelope optimization are modeled for energy and lighting quality impacts for different design options. In

addition, the firm has implemented several ongoing research projects intended to expand our understanding of new technologies, new design

integration possibilities, and new modeling software applications to facilitate future needs. These projects include a study of what strategies

will be needed to achieve the goals of the Architecture 2030 challenge to reduce carbon emissions, studies of integration of energy modeling

and Building Information Modeling (BIM), and fundamental project delivery methods to facilitate earlier and better interdisciplinary cooperation.

Implementation – At KlingStubbins, sustainable design efforts are coordinated by assigning a LEED Accredited Professional to every project

team. Regardless of whether the project will be registered and certified by the USGBC, each project is reviewed in each design phase for

sustainability strategies that are appropriate to the project. The LEED Accredited Professional oversees project sustainable design and LEED issues,

working to ensure that all systems and designs are energy- and cost-efficient and that reusable / recycled materials are used where appropriate.

He or she works with the entire team to develop sustainable design / LEED criteria, and help ensure that these criteria are met during the entire

project process.

KlingStubbins and Jacobs both joined the AIA’s 2030 Commitment—a challenge to design “climate-neutral” buildings by 2030. The firm pursues

meeting the goal both at its premises and in its projects.

As practitioners of sustainable principles, our commitment is not limited by project type. Our current “green” endeavors enhance the productivity,

well-being, and performance of lab buildings, corporate headquarters, university medical centers, computer science facilities, residence halls, Federal

government facilities, and hotels, as well as their occupants. It is our great hope that our sustainable efforts today will positively impact and improve

the lives of generations to come.

Building Information Modeling

KlingStubbins is a leader in the implementation of emerging practice technologies. Today, the firm is in the forefront in the migration from

traditional 2-dimensional CAD drafting to advanced Building Information Modeling (BIM). Building Information Modeling is a dramatic process

change in the building industry that enables project teams to view, analyze and test accurate virtual models of building designs and make

changes as necessary all before moving into construction. Used properly BIM can dramatically improve the project delivery process.

KlingStubbins Leadership in Building Information Modeling is demonstrated by its early adoption of BIM over five years ago and its use of BIM on

over 20 projects since. In all, the firm has completed 1,000,000 SF of BIM projects and has 5,000,000 SF of projects in design. KlingStubbins is

a 2006 recipient of the AIA Technology in Architectural Practice BIM award for the twelve-story Merck Research Laboratories building in Boston.

KlingStubbins professionals regularly speak at conferences and publish articles on BIM.

Through its extensive use of BIM over the years, KlingStubbins has demonstrated the following project benefits:
