TOMSIKTOMSIK ARCHITECTS/PLANNERS, LTD. is an accomplished firm
whose experience has been accumulating since 1954. The originating
foundation, combined with the influx of innovation, has made this firm
adaptable to the demands of today's changing architecture. Necessary
to today's designs is the capability of the Architect to probe, research,
analyze and function as coordinator of the various fields of input pertinent
to the project. This firm believes in design through active participation
which culminates in a satisfying experience for both client and Architect.
The expertise of this firm will carry the project from planning through
construction, utilizing, as necessary, the finest engineering and consulting
firms available.
We are individuals who are dedicated to working as a team, which we feel
is necessary to solve the complex problems of today's technology.
Good design is created by collaborative unity, not by the sole proverbial
prima donna. Input from outside consultants is vital to our philosophy
and is preferred to in-house engineering disciplines. The use of
these consultants is a good check-and-balance through the integration
of various expertise and methods of innovation by the exposure to many
other projects as compared to routine catalog engineering
and design.
John Lipaj founded the firm, John F. Lipaj & Associates/Architect,
in 1954. In 1967, the firm became a partnership known as Lipaj,
Woyar & Tomsik Architects. In 1977 Peter Woyar retired, which
resulted in the partnership of LipajTomsik Architects/Planners.
John Lipaj retired in 1997, and now the firm is a partnership of father
and son: Thomas and T. Michael.
Current partners, Thomas E. Tomsik and T. Michael Tomsik together carry
on the tradition of quality design and personal service. The Tomsiks
are the principals and concept designers who will be personally working
on the execution of the proposed projects. Our practice of pursuing
only those commissions which can be personally under our control has borne
for this office many repeat clients.
Through the years our practical experience includes health care, public
and parochial educational buildings, colleges and universities, civic
buildings, religious, recreational, commercial projects with restaurants,
malls, retail stores, banks, offices, townhouses, condominiums and various
other projects which have enhanced our overall project list.
Our firm does not discriminate in employment because of color, race,
religion, sex, national origin, handicap or ancestry.
