Robert Ross, AIA

Principal

A graduate of Georgia Tech, Robert has since put down deep roots living inside the perimeter, where he’s watched Atlanta transform into the urban center it is today.

His architectural career began as a draftsman at Architectural Design Concepts in 1984 where he advanced to Vice President for Design by 1997. But he always felt the need to express his own concepts and designs, which culminated in the founding of Ross Design, Inc.

As a member of the American Institute of Architects, Robert believes that good design does not happen in a vacuum. To that end he began the Atlanta Chapter of the AIA’s Custom Residential Architects Network (CRAN) as a way to build relationships and community among Atlanta’s Residential Architects. Continuing Education is a way of life, not merely a requirement to check off.

Believing strongly that you should practice what you preach, Robert has lived in the same home in the Ormewood Park neighborhood for over three decades. And it’s here that he’s slowly evolved his home to match the changing needs of his family, while working to improve the community.

When he’s not creating, you’ll find Robert in the garden where he’s transformed the landscape of his backyard into a lush parklike setting. And, while he does love a good walk on the Beltline, visit to a museum or live theater, his love of architectural design is never far from his mind, planning many family vacations around historical sites and tours.

Logan Mayer, Assoc. AIA

Project Coordinator

Growing up in rural Iowa, Logan developed a passion for building and design at a young age. This led him to obtaining extensive experience in the construction industry and it culminated in him obtaining his master degree in architecture and construction management certificate from Iowa State University. During his time in graduate school, Logan worked with two different architecture firms providing him with valuable design experience in many different kinds of projects.

Sustainable design has always been a focus for Logan due to its impact on both the environment and human well-being. Growing up surrounded by wilderness, he developed an appreciation for the positive effects of nature which inspired his passion for eco-friendly design. Logan aims to create structures that reduce carbon footprints, conserve resources, and enhance the quality of life for all.

Outside of work, you can find Logan out hiking, reading, working out, cooking, or learning about something new.

Bharath Srinivasan, Assoc. AIA

Project Designer

Bharath earned his bachelor's degree in architecture from the National Institute of Technology, Bhopal, in 2017. He then gained valuable experience working with a variety of architecture firms, contributing to projects ranging from airport master planning to residential and multifamily residential projects. He went on to pursue his master's degree at Georgia Tech, graduating in 2024.

He believes in the transformative power of architecture to create spaces that elevate the user experience. He approaches every task with a solution-focused mindset and values teamwork. You can often find him sketching on a drawing board, as he finds the tactile process helps him resolve details and generate new ideas. He is particularly passionate about graphic design and presentation, always striving to make a powerful impression.

He loves riding his motorcycle to work and on weekends, exploring the North Georgia mountains.  When he's not on his bike, he is studying for his AREs. He also enjoys photography, cooking, and coffee. Coming from a background of rich cultural exposure in India, he values learning about and sharing different cultures.
