We consult with an excellent group of civil, structural, mechanical, and electrical engineers, for projects that require such specialized knowledge. We hire the same engineers repeatedly and have great working relationships with them. With the aid of our consultants, we offer full architectural/engineering services for projects with construction costs of up to $10M.
We have a sincere interest in sustainable design and in helping to preserve the earth's resources. As technological advances are continually making green design more affordable, we see few reasons not to invest in ecologically conscious construction.
We discuss with our clients the advantages of proper building siting and landscaping features, the use of solar angles, efficient fenestration, sustainable materials, and renewable heating/cooling systems, presented in terms of long term energy savings and as responsible choices as stewards of this planet.For the past 20 years, we have guided our projects with a unique style of "hands-on" leadership from start to finish.

Services
The process of our work varies depending on if the project is new construction, or if it is an addition/remodel, but here are is a brief process outline of a typical project.
We almost always will need to visit your building or site to fully absorb the context of your project.
We meet with you on site, listen to your thoughts, take in the parameters, and ask you about your construction budget, so that we can help you stay within it.
We then type up a written proposal which spells out what we heard you say about project scope, timing, and parameters.

Many clients ask the question.
After all we are not cheap.
Couldn't the money saved on architectural fees be better spent on a new Viking stove?
Or hardwood flooring?
The following are responses that I have provided to this question.
While it may seem self serving for an architect to justify his or her professional worth, I suppose that many of these responses could also be independently verified by builders, suppliers, and real estate agents who work with architects.
Architect designed homes also offer homeowners a greater personal value in terms of efficiency, circulation, consistency, comfort, etc. in their day to day living environment.
