We create good design for people, communities, and the environment.
Since 1975, we’ve partnered with visionary leaders in higher education, healthcare, workforce training, and government to design and develop intentional architecture with our future in mind.
A craft we all care about
We are tenacious educators, students, and designers. We are inspired by the continuous feedback loop of a project, where concepts shift from mere thoughts to drawings then to a physical structure that fosters connection, inclusivity, and growth. We believe this creates stronger communities and better outcomes for society.
We care about our people.
We are a strong, close-knit team. Our culture — always teaching, always sharing lessons from the field — empowers our team and architectural community to do innovative work, pursue professional development, and live fulfilling lives.
We care about our work.
We are in the constant pursuit of excellence, always reflecting on how we can do better. Prioritizing human-centered design, we create environments that meet current needs, anticipate the future, and enrich lives for decades to come.
Design that works for you
We embrace the principles of contemporary design to create engaging, human-centered spaces for education, research, community engagement, and civic activities.
Everyone at the table
Design is both process and outcome. We listen first to all perspectives to understand who you are, what you do, how you do it, and why. Because the design of your building should be unique to your mission, your values, and your people. Then, we put pencil to paper (or mouse in hand) to create a design that solves your challenges and amplifies your impact.

Let’s create something better together.

We are environmental stewards
Design and construction are inherently consumptive. We have a duty to minimize our environmental impact. Our commitment to sustainability begins with client education. As true collaborators, we want to make sure we are all working together to select and prioritize smart materials, energy-efficient systems, and thoughtful building placement.
Design is a team sport
We care about each other and the work we do. We like to laugh, and we work to succeed, sharing a desire to make our communities better through thoughtful architecture. We celebrate individual victories just as loudly as firm-wide wins. Everyone here has a voice, opportunities for growth, and real responsibilities.
