Unparalleled Design and Management
Respect is prominent in our project management and design philosophy and our holistic approach to each project sets us apart from other firms. Our clients become partners in the planning, management, and development of each design. The results are solutions and delivery that are high-quality and surpass client needs and expectations.
ERO is a collaborative organization. Our best projects and most successful relationships are the results of using a high degree of listening and collaboration with effective project management and planning. Our holistic approach partners us with owners, consultants, and contractors during every stage of a project. We value listening and collaborating to earn community trust, manage project resources prudently and build one-of-a-kind projects. Frequent communications entail meetings and on-site visits that allow a hands-on approach to ensure proper resolution of any issues.
ERO begins problem-solving with problem-seeking. Identifying challenges and risks as early as possible affords us the opportunity to find optimal solutions. Our forte is innovating solutions to successfully transform complex challenges, processes, and ideas into instructive and communal architectural designs delivered on-time and on-budget.
ERO creatively weaves a community's unique history, culture, and land into the fabric of the building design—inspiring those interacting with the building. We embed design metaphors to demonstrate our respect and engender a sense of community ownership.
ERO is a HUB-, DBE- and MBE-certified 100% Hispanic-owned firm. We created our firm knowing we have a unique perspective to share with the public which results in projects that enrich user experiences or educational outcomes.
ERO has proven the transformational power of future focused designs through our extensive body of work. The designs address the user through neuroscience and sensory frameworks. Future focused architecture engages and inspires occupants and visitors using light, color, connectivity, flexibility, and choice. These spatial frameworks engender communication, collaboration, digital connectivity, critical thinking, global competence, and problem-solving. Our stunning future focused schools are learnable, teachable and communal facilities.
When ERO completes a project, our clients feel that they were part of the process, their ideas were heard and made a difference and their budget was respected. Principal, Bertie Simmons, characterized ERO's Furr High School replacement project as a "family project." James Rodriguez, UTRGV, stated that he finds us dependable, reliable, efficient, truthful and collaborative.

Project Planning
Development of facility planning and project management begins with defining the theory, principles, and techniques related to end-user experience. Understanding the physical needs and space efficiencies of all facilities is paramount. Establishing a timely and practical master plan should reflect a systematic process in planning a functional and modern facility that meets programmatic and budgetary goals.

PrincipalPharr-San Juan-Alamo ISDAfter spending two years in portables at Audie Murphy Middle School, it is a good feeling to have a campus (Thomas Jefferson Early College High School) where the students are in charge of their own learning. We are in awe over the science labs, technology resources, cafetorium and landscaping. It feels like a college campus."

PresidentSouth Texas CollegeERO Architects is a very creative design firm, providing the us with innovative solutions to complex programming and budget issues. ERO assembled a very competent team of professionals and the communications among the partners has been flawless and ultimately contributes to the success of the project. The dynamic team always focuses on the task at hand resulting in cost controls to stay within a tight budget, on schedule and delivered with exceptional quality. I am particularly pleased with how well ERO has interfaced with the construction manager during the preconstruction services phase.
ERO accepted every challenge set before it, including ensuring the building is a culturally relevant and desirable space for our students.
