Adam Trojanowski advances Altieri’s museum HVAC design philosophy through the pursuit of low-energy, sustainable design methods.

Adam joined Altieri in 2004. His considerable expertise lies in the design of specialty mechanical systems for highly controlled environments and architecturally complex projects including The Obama Presidential Center, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and Harvard University’s The Goel Center for Creativity & Performance. Adam’s rigorous oversight and technical precision consistently reinforce Altieri’s highest quality standards. His exceptional organizational skills have been instrumental in fostering client relationships that have endured for decades. Clients value Adam’s ability to apply the same thoughtful, conceptually rigorous, and adaptable approach across projects of every type and scale. The overall project leadership he provides underscores the fundamental principle that Altieri’s designs prioritize the quality, character, and integrity of the architecture and preserve the architect’s vision as our paramount intention.

Adam teaches a course on systems integration at Yale University’s Graduate School of Architecture.
