Principal Kin Ng has been a principal and lead Architectural designer for MJSA for over 20 years. As one of 3 principals at MJSA, Kin has explored inventive and contextually exciting design solutions in response to site opportunities and user requirements. His intuitive approach to architecture is guided by his personal philosophy, which is best being described as being respectful. This respect is expressed and manifested in his details as well as the blending of spaces and materials that are activated by light.

Principal Robert Pett has more than 20 years of experience in the design and project management of complex institutional projects for higher education and government in the intermountain west. As one of three principals at MJSA, Rob recently served as lead project designer for the Capitol Restoration Group and their $180 million seismic retrofit and historic renovation of the Utah State Capitol building.

An assessment in 2002 found the facility to be seriously out of compliance with seismic, accessibility, and life safety standards, and out of room for collection or reader seat growth. The renovation of the library, undertaken in 2003 by MJSA in collaboration with consulting architect Leo A Daly, addressed each of these issues in a way that created a virtually new state-of-the-art building while remaining in operation during its rebirth. The structural upgrade provided unique solutions to significant seismic concerns, carefully integrated into the new building.
