Our style is personal and direct. We listen to our clients, which assures an interactive design process. We use a variety of tools to communicate our ideas, which effectively levels the playing field between architect and client and guarantees active and vigorous participation by all.

We are committed to green building design decisions that are ecologically responsible and to materials that are safe, sustainable, and low-maintenance. We have considerable hands-on experience with wood frame construction and a common interest in buildings that are simple, elegant, and permanent. The firm encourages each of its members to grow professionally. We discuss architectural ideas actively, and we structure our office so that project managers take their jobs from schematic design through construction administration.

The Practice is broad-based, tackling a wide variety of projects from simple house extensions to a variety of commercial, industrial, retail and health care projects, some typical examples of which are illustrated in the "Projects" section of this site - just click on the links above to see some examples of our work.
