The Galante Architecture Studio (TGAS) is a professional design studio offering services in architecture, urban planning, and design. Theodore Galante AIA, Founding Principal, established TGAS in 1997 after extensive experience as a project architect and site representative.
TGAS’ design philosophy is based upon distilling a building to its essential programmatic components; thereby reaching expression in its clearest form. Contemporary institutional architecture is the focus of the firm, and to date we have completed many Institutional, Commercial, Municipal, and Residential projects. Through active listening, focused responses, and unequivocal attention to detail, we produce needs-based design results, while balancing design complexities with site pragmatics, program and budget. By utilizing a broad knowledge of construction methods, TGAS is able to deliver projects on time and on budget. Our cost estimating results are in the range of 5% above and below actual costs. As LEED© Accredited Professionals, TGAS’ methodological approach to all projects extends beyond energy and material conservation, but to larger planning issues potential and environmental effects of the project as a whole.
