As the founder and owner, I bring extensive experience managing projects of all sizes, from small interior alterations to large ground-up buildings with budgets exceeding $50 million. My work spans unique residential projects, fast-paced commercial development, and government contract work across the United States.
With an undergraduate degree from New Jersey Institute of Technology and a Masters in Business Administration from Louisiana State University, I take pride in my contributions to rebuilding Jersey Shore communities after Hurricane Sandy, and adding to the rich built into our local communities. As a family-oriented individual with strong community ties, I am committed to giving back through pro-bono services and volunteering with the American Institute of Leadership to advance the design profession.
Meet the Architects
Pouya Zhand, RA, AIA, NCARB
With a global architectural education and a deep interest in the philosophy of space, Pouya brings a thoughtful and design-driven approach to Intemporal Architecture. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Architecture from Cardiff University in the United Kingdom and his Master of Architecture from Syracuse University. During his time at Syracuse, he served as a Studio Design Teaching Assistant and received the Alpha Rho Chi Medal for Leadership, Service, and Professional Merit, one of the highest honors awarded by the School of Architecture.
With nearly a decade of professional experience, Pouya has worked on a diverse range of projects including custom homes, multifamily residential developments, mixed-use buildings, hospitality, and higher education facilities. This breadth of experience informs a rigorous design process that balances creativity, technical precision, and careful attention to detail.
His work is influenced by the principles of phenomenology, the study of how we experience architecture through light, materials, proportion, and movement through space. For homeowners, this translates into environments that feel intentional, refined, and deeply connected to the way they live. Pouya approaches each project as an opportunity to craft spaces that are timeless, personal, and enduring.
