working with clients getting it built

We flourish in a collaborative environment. Our open studio fosters a participatory process among designers, consultants, and our clients. Given the rigors of today’s governmental regulations and the complexity of contemporary technologies, most projects require a team of associated professionals under the architect’s leadership to successfully address design and technical issues.

Our structural, mechanical and civil engineers help us achieve the highest technical standards. Woodworkers and metal workers work with us to balance utility and beauty. Lighting and environmental consultants bring cutting edge procedures and products to projects as required. And landscape, interior, and graphic designers bring complementary sensibilities that broaden the sense of what is possible. We work collaboratively with contractors and subcontractors as well, taking advantage of everyone’s expertise.

We utilize a Building Information Modeling computer based system that, together with our strong organizational skills, keeps communications flowing effectively as design and construction progress.
