We view architectural design as the creative synthesis of our client's needs and the project constraints, expressed in a building that is aesthetically strong and physically enduring. We believe that good design is a collaborative effort, and we strive to create our work through an open, participatory studio process that draws on the talents of the entire design team. We do not begin design with a fixed image or stylistic solution in mind. Instead, we hold frequent studio design sessions where models and drawings are used to evaluate alternate design options. Our collaborative design methodology provides the foundation for engaging our clients in the creative process of architecture.
