“ Architecture is not merely an exercise in problem solving but rather an opportunity to explore new and creative solutions and to explore the connection between the building and its environmental context. The challenge is to create a richer setting for human interaction.” Gregory Ninow AIA
Charismatic, personable and extremely professional. His broad knowledge, confidence, communication style, commitment to clients, high energy, experience and discipline have to be seen to be believed. We at Mimar see every day how he brings elite level project management and construction administration skills to our clients requests. He develops each project’s scope, fee and schedule. He then monitors project budgets, schedules and staffing needs. All this while assuring that the design meets your program’s functional budget and aesthetic requirements. He deftly leads his team and commands the respect of all our subs and staff by his honesty, sincerity, direct communications and ability to anticipate challenges.

HIGHLANDTOWN/GREEKTOWN STATION
We came back to the community for feedback. This example is for the Highland-Greektown Red Line Station.
We took a holistic approach that considers education, transportation, sustainability, economic development, affordable housing, future growth and resilience in the face of climate change.
We produced 3D Drawings that excited Marylanders about our vision for the Red Line Inner Harbor Station.
Even the Baltimore Ravens put us on their team!

The proposed Red Line is a 14.1 mile, east west transit line. MIMAR provided design services for the Security Square Mall and Highlandtown Stations. MIMAR also provided architectural, planning, structural, and civil engineering as well as quality control services for numerous other stations. We provided 3D rendering for all 19 Red Line stations.

MIMAR was commissioned to provide master planning concept themes for this major redevelopment project. The Suitland community plan outlines a vision for a 33-acre redevelopment project, which includes the entirety of the proposed 22-acre Suitland Manor project site. Mimarch developed a mixed-use, urban town center, where a combination of new offices, retail and entertainment venues, and high and mid density housing will be developed to form a lively, pedestrian-friendly neighborhood.

It was a pleasurable experience that we wish to repeat. Mr. Bhatti and his team did a fantastic job on the design. The contract documents were well coordinated and led to minimal RFIs ...if you are choosing an architect to design your next project, we would highly recommend Kal and the MIMAR team.”
-James B. Gardiner of Gardiner & Gardiner
Multi-Purpose Auditorium Building #64As architect of record, MIMAR discovered and rectified problems with the original design through review and evaluation of previously prepared Design Development Documents and redesigned as necessary.
MIMARCH, as Prime, lead this civic project from inception to all phases of design and post construction services. Amazingly, the construction phase of this prohect was completed with change orders of less than 1%, and the project received credits for more than the change order amount.
Victor Chao pays such close attention to detail that change orders are minimal.

MIMAR/ BAkeR planned and designed The Customer Service Building, a 50,000 SF sized facility designed for 2020, with a central atrium for a one stop shuttle. Rental car counters are distributed “radially” around the lobby in a “mini-mall” concept for parity. The project creates a multi-agency Customer Service Building that affords parity between the respective agencies with regard to customer service and convenience. The primary design concept is building efficiency and customer-friendliness; efficiency of travel and maximizing comfort from the passenger loading zones to the customer agency service space to the ready/return.

Surface Station Scheme A TRANSLUCENT PLANES
Through simple, yet sophisticated design, the vision of this canopy is to
seamlessly blend within it’s context along the Red Line regardless of location
within Baltimore.
The use of strong vertical planes will create an identifiable presence on the
platform by establishing a gateway for customers. In contrast, the canopy will
appear to be a floating plane above with little support structure revealed.
By cladding the planes with lightweight translucent materials, from a distance it
can appear to become one with the surroundings, but upon closer inspection it
shows itself to be a more dense form.
At night, when internally lit, these translucent planes will serve as a beacon of
light identifying the station. The simple form and translucent materials allow the
form to bathe in light throughout and become a recognizable glow.

The addition of the Silver Line to the Orange/Blue stations from Rosslyn station to Largo Town Center required additional design services to create methods not previously used to add a third destination on all signs. Additional wayfinding signs were devel-oped to identify which streets are at each exit.

NAZARIO DEVELOPMENT – LAUREL MIXED-USE
MIMAR PONTE MELLOR Architects delivered full service architectural and engineering design and construction administration services for the new Grant Plaza office building located in the center of the historic district in the City of Manassas, Virginia. Opened in the spring of 2009, the highly detailed, traditionally inspired brick façade is a welcome addition to the historic fabric of the old blocks near the County Courthouse. The project brought together two small city land parcels to form a solid city corner lot. The architecture expresses the corner boldly, with a partial rotunda, cornice and detailed ironwork reminiscent of building from the late 1800s/early 1900s that make up some of the older city core.
MIMAR PONTE MELLOR Architects worked closely with the City of Manassas Architectural Review Board for approval of the design concept. The building contains retail space on the first level and office space on levels two through four. This project is the second office building in downtown Manassas.

CYCLELIFE
We are working closely with the developer, the regional planning authority and local citizens groups to understand and address relevant concerns to ensure timely approval. The project has exceeded client and lender expectations in terms of appearance, adaptive re-use of existing structural components, timeliness and above all return on investment. As a confirmation of the project’s success, the project has been leased to American University as a law and graduate student dormitory with only minor specific modifications to the original building plan.
