HOW
WE
DO IT
Sustainable Design –
Net Zero Energy /
Zero Emissions
Since the built environment creates a massive 40% of the world’s emissions; architects, engineers and building owners play a key role in creating a positive impact on the environment.
Our objective is to create designs for the built world that not only conserve the environment but also enhance the lives of everyone – symbiotic solutions.

WHY
WE
DO IT
The Future of Architecture.
Our Philosophy
At id9 Corporation, we are driven by the belief that architecture must respond intelligently to its purpose, its place, and its time. Our passion lies in creating designs that grow naturally from a project’s requirements—integrating the core concept (Parti), site conditions, historical context, and long-term sustainability into a cohesive and forward-thinking vision.
Kelly McKinley brings a deep respect for artistic expression and design integrity, never compromising vision, sustainability, or quality. Each project is approached as a unique opportunity to create meaningful architecture—balancing site-specific identity with the realities of budget and schedule.
We believe it’s too late to be pessimists. The future demands that we reimagine the relationship between people and the planet’s living systems. Architecture is one of the most powerful and lasting expressions of that relationship. That’s why we aim to design buildings that don’t just conserve resources—they elevate human experience.
Our goal is simple: to create symbiotic solutions—spaces where sustainability, function, and beauty are not in competition, but in harmony.
