Rob Filary, AIA, is an Education Sector Leader, driven by a passion for designing inclusive, engaging environments that support learning, connection, and student well-being.
With a background that bridges creative design and technical execution, Rob delivers spaces that are imaginative, constructible, and attuned to the evolving needs of educators and students.
His process begins with listening—collaborating closely with school communities to uncover the unique needs, aspirations, and constraints of each project. He believes flexibility, curiosity, and human-centered thinking are essential to delivering environments that are not only functional and adaptable, but foster dialogue, joy, and belonging. A former AIA State President and an award-winning designer, Rob has led projects across educational, community, retail, housing, and hospitality sectors.
