Our approach to every project is based on an immersive search for the found potential across all aspects of a project’s context.

We consider the context, regardless of project scale, to be both expansive (ie, regional) and specific (ie. local existing conditions). Our search focuses on understanding the particulars of place including topography, climate, program, client’s needs, aspirations, and culture. The results of this immersion are the catalyst of our process and the projects we create. We seek to create buildings inextricably tied to place, rendering them resilient, inevitable... timeless.

The core of our team’s architectural training and focus both academically and professionally is design, which in essence is solving often complex problems beautifully.

We see design as an integral part of everything we do.  Whether we are putting together a proposal, a drawing set, designing a handrail detail for a stair, or conceiving the plan strategy for a new project, we strive for everything that is created by us to be beautifully conceived, beautifully resolved, and beautifully executed.
