Check out the May 1, 2023 edition of ENR Southwest, featuring Southwest Design Firm of the Year: Architekton, Top Design Firms, Arizona DOT's I-17 Improvement Project, news and more!
Since its founding in 1989, Tempe, Ariz.-based Architekton Inc. has designed a variety of landmark buildings throughout the metropolitan Phoenix valley and across Arizona.
For decades, commuters, holiday trippers and truck drivers have contended with a twisting eight-mile uphill stretch of Interstate 17, with ascents to 6.17% and seasonal temperatures regularly exceeding 100 degrees.
