The Office
The work shown here is the product of a continually changing team of devoted architects and interns who have worked under the flag of AA Robins Architect over the last 40 years. All have shown incredible devotion to the pursuit of excellence in architecture. I wish to name some of the main players from over 55 employees who have been instrumental to the success of the office and without whom these projects would absolutley not have been possible.
