Architecture

The foundation of all of the services to be provided. The basis of all design by architects is providing safe and healthy well constructed environments for Living + Learning + Faith + Work + Play. Every building is more than a physical structure. It is a time capsule that contributes to the history of a community and partner in creating culture.

Planning

Whether the "Vision" is clear or to be determined the final result is completely dependent upon sound principled planning. Quality Process = Quality Results. Just like producing wine the quality is dependent upon the process. We always customize the approach to provide each owner with the desired result that matches their mission and values.

Consultation

Architects are natural Problem Solvers + Mediators + Visionaries + Planners. Not every client needs a new building. Through programming  + assessments + facility analysis we can assist owners in more ways in understanding their needs. If you know there is a need but cannot pin down what that need is we have a process to create a coherent understanding of what is needed and develop budgets and short/long term plans for executing your needs.

"Purpose"

"Pursuit of Excellence in Service"

Always the owners representative - Always respecting the owners mission, objectives and resources - Always pursuing the best solutions

Custom solutions through creativity and innovation

Always exploring solutions that create exceptional environments to learn, live, work & play. Each built environment should contribute to enhancement of a communities culture.

Craft

Through quality design we are partners in preserving and respecting the craft of artisans. Michael Angelo and Leonardo daVinci mastered their craft and demonstrated the potential that materials possess. We strive to understand the technical potential and limitations of the materials we utilize in design so that the artisans are executing successful solutions. While quality of aesthetic and space is paramount for it to endure we must apply a mastery to the utilization of the materials and assemblies we specify.
