Located in central Virginia, Virginia A&E was founded in 2005 to provide full-service architectural and engineering services to clients throughout the state. We are a small business, with less than 20 employees, which allows staff to easily interact and coordinate on projects. Our work environment promotes communication and camaraderie while creating engaging, diverse, and dynamic solutions to meet our clients’ needs.
Virginia A&E is centered around personal interaction between the client and design professionals — committed to nurturing long-term client relationships by providing responsive and quality services on every project we undertake.

Management Philosophy
It is the policy of Virginia A&E to adhere to the principles of individual recognition through direct and open communication with our employees. Our success as a Company is founded on the skills and efforts of our employees. It is our desire to deal with employees fairly and honestly and to respect and recognize each as an individual. We believe that open and frank discussion between employees and Management is the most satisfactory method of addressing matters that affect either. We are a union-free Company and are committed to maintaining that status through all legal means available.
Virginia A&E also believes that personal diversity in all its aspects is essential to our ability to accomplish our mission. Diversity embodies all those differences that make us unique individuals and includes people of different race, ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, gender, religion, age, personal style, appearance, and physical ability as well as people of diverse opinions, perspectives, lifestyles, ideas, and thinking. We value the differences in views and perspectives and the varied experiences that are part of a diverse workforce. Diversity enriches and broadens our team, which in turn leads to more creative and professional services.
