Sven Schroeter’s Summary

TAO is a design-oriented architecture, planning, and engineering firm with a wide-ranging portfolio of commercial, residential, educational, and institutional projects in the mid-Atlantic region and beyond.

As Sr. Director of Design, I oversee all phases of project development with an emphasis on maintaining architectural design intent and integrity from concept through construction.

My experience encompasses a broad range of project types, including single- and multi-family residential, commercial highrise, corporate interiors, urban planning, as well as design for transportation, education, and performing arts facilities.

Outside of the office, I have lectured and served as a guest design jury critic at various universities.
