Our Culture

Full of talented architects, designers, and planners from diverse backgrounds; we sit together in an open studio where daily cross-disciplinary interactions enrich everything we do as design professionals. The absence of hierarchy in our studio reinforces the notion that all elements of the design process are equally important. As a result, our design accolades are not just a reflection of good design concepts, but a testament to our entire team and their dedication to thoughtful technical execution.

We share a universal commitment to doing exceptional work, but also genuinely enjoy spending time together. Whether testing the office drone, celebrating life milestones together, or brainstorming during a pin-up - we know the key to our culture, is finding joy in what we do.

Intern Program

Christner’s Summer Internship Program is an opportunity for students to engage in project work as part of the design team and also work independently on a research assignment. The intern group meets regularly with research advisors to ensure that they have the resources and support needed to be successful. Each intern has the opportunity to present to the office about their research assignment and their presentation materials that are created can be used by the intern as part of their portfolio of work.

Ideal candidates are students who are approaching their final year of architectural education. Interns are paid hourly and are eligible for any paid holidays which occur during their employment, such as the 4th of July. Parking is available in our building and is paid for by Christner. Moving costs are not compensable.
