We are a collaborative group of designers who believe that architecture has the power to transform lives and enhance communities. We approach each project as an opportunity to provide creative solutions to complex programs through observation, exploration, and experience. We seek to understand the physical and cultural context of each project and recognize that each project, regardless of scale, is an opportunity to challenge the broader definition of design.

We begin each project as an opportunity to provide creative solutions to complex programs through observation, exploration, and experience.
Our approach to design is not based on an aesthetic style, but rather a rigorous design process that explores people and place through the examination of site, function, and cultural context.
While we promote innovative design thinking, we have an understanding of the balance between function, design, cost, and construction.

BIM, or Building Information Modeling, is a model-based process of designing and documenting the design of a building in 3D.
This 3-dimensional digital representation of a building is the foundation from which plans, sections, elevations, perspectives, schedules, spreadsheets, and many other useful tools can be drawn.
If Architecture is the process of turning thought into space, BIM is the tool and the process we use to visualize, communicate, and organize the information required to make that thought a reality.
