Heller Manus Architects

Heller Manus Architects is a San Francisco-based architecture, master planning, and urban design firm with offices in San Francisco and Shanghai. The firm, founded in 1984, has established itself as a diversified client-oriented architecture, master planning, and urban design firm with a focus on sustainability, as showcased by its location in the LEED-Platinum certified Transamerica Pyramid. Unlike firms with a signature approach, Heller Manus prioritizes finding the ideal design solution for each commission, leading to a diverse portfolio of projects, including residential, commercial, civic, academic/research, rehabilitation/adaptive reuse, hospitality, and retail, as well as urban design plans in the San Francisco Bay Area, several U.S. cities, and in China’s largest cities.

With landmark projects such as the City Hall Beaux-Arts renovation and a myriad of other high-quality, cost-effective designs, Heller Manus has gained recognition as a design and sustainability leader in the profession. The firm's expertise extends to large and small-scale retail designs, transportation projects, and mixed-use buildings, achieving contextual appropriateness and functionality for end-users. Since 2004, Heller Manus International has experienced dynamic growth throughout China, with projects in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Inner Mongolia, and the greater Beijing area, demonstrating the firm's dedication to sustainable architecture and urban design in Asia.

While the company's last investment and investors are not disclosed, the impressive growth and diversification of Heller Manus Architects serve as a testament to its potential and attractiveness to prospective investors seeking a foothold in the sustainable architecture and urban design sector.
