Aline Architecture Concepts is an Arizona architecture studio on a mission to create meaningful projects that inspire people and enhance our local community. We believe in healthy spaces-quality architecture that is stripped of unnecessary materials, clean and simplistic in its systems, and focused on the craft of how renewable materials and intriguing details come together. Our buildings are modern yet timeless; structures that the next generation will want to preserve.
We're not here to push our own agenda, but to listen to your vision. Aline Architecture Concepts is where entrepreneurial spirits go to bring their bold ideas to life. There's no ego involved on either side of our working partnerships, just a shared dedication to quality and attention to detail.

Passionate about the role the architect plays in the strategy of developing the built environment, Brian Krob has found each project is an opportunity to creates spaces that capture the imagination while being conscientious of resources. Brian is incredibly grateful for remarkable experiences developed during his undergrad at Arizona State University as well as his Master's at UCLA. He took from that a desire to develop mindfully, weighing issues of energy and water consumption, and finding ways to repurpose structures to reduce cost and material. As a co-founder of Aline Architecture Concepts he has brought to practice these ideals and the experience to affect the architecture of today. Now that he has two girls of his own, he is passing along his passion for making and being respectful to the place where you create.

Project Manager
Passionate about building community, Ken believes the built environment not only has a critical role in solving climate change but also a role in connecting people through the design of intentional spaces. When buildings respond to climate, they can create spaces that enrich peoples physical and mental health and wellbeing. Color, texture, light and shadow all define how people feel and experience architecture and play a critical role in a person's experience with the built environment. With a Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Arizona, Kens approach to design is multifaceted, solving critical design issues while also seeing it from a human scale aimed at creating spaces for the individual while responding to community. His prior experience includes working with the University of Arizona Drachman Design Build Coalition, designing local restaurants, offices, and custom home projects as well as larger projects, from club houses to community parks & boutique hotels. When Ken is not hard at work in the office, he's at home playing with his three pugs, playing ice hockey and designing and building the next phase of home improvements with his husband Adam.
