Who we are...

Our office of twelve professional staff are registered architects and architecture school graduates, from a variety of education and experience backgrounds, prior office experience, and project and client involvement.  Along with two additional support staff, we provide personal and engaged involvement directly with design teams regularly throughout the project.

Striving to build skills and confidence in our intern staff, they're engaged through direct project and management experience.  All our staff participate in the specifications process at each level of development, from proposals and contract negotiation, through specifications production and coordination, project administration, client support and marketing.

Project visits, fabrication shop tours, conferences and trainings, and office retreats keep us connected to the work we do for our clients and maintain our internal cohesion, enthusiasm and quality of work.
