Principal

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

Adam joined Altieri in 2004 as a senior mechanical engineer after nine years with Ove Arup & Partners, in New York and London. He was made a Principal in 2011. Adam has considerable expertise in the design of specialty mechanical systems for highly-controlled environments and architecturally challenging projects such as The Obama Presidential Center in Chicago, Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, and Harvard’s A.R.T. Center for Theater Research and Performance, in Allston, MA. His exceptional organization skills are key to the long-running relationships he has developed with our clients, and the overall project guidance he provides ensures that Altieri’s designs prioritize the quality, character, and integrity of the architecture and maintain the architect’s vision as our paramount intention.

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