With so much time, money and effort going into a new project, its silly to rush into things without getting an experienced guide to help you along the way.
We want to work with you to go through all the needs and options early in the process.

There are so many options in design, materials and execution, that these are almost limitless.
How does it effect what has already been done and may need to be redesigned or even rebuilt?

We've been asked which do we prefer?
Residential work or commercial work?
The answer is we prefer clients interested in taking advantage of architecture and design.
We prefer good clients.
Clients who can either work with us, and/or trust us to design for them.
A good client/architect relationship is fun, rewarding and typically leads to better architecture.
Our experience is with custom residences and commercial tenant improvement work.
So, we are not the firm for ground up commercial high rises, multi-family residential, and large scale tract home development.

Over the years, we've designed and built many contemporary and traditional new houses, remodels and extensions.
While every project responds differently to the individual site and client's aspirations, all our designs are inspired by our passion for creating modern, elegant, energy-efficient architecture for easy 21st century living.
When economic times are tough and house prices are high, many homeowners choose to improve, extend and/or alter their existing home, rather than move.
Equally, house purchasers may find and want to buy a house in a great location then remodel it to suit their specific needs.
