Architectural & Design Services

Across a range of project types, including private residences, schools, public buildings, and cultural landmarks, we create new buildings that reimagine otherwise vacant sites in both dense urban environments and open landscapes. Responsive to existing site conditions, designed to optimize program, and built for environmental sustainability, these new buildings create enduring landmarks inside and out.

Working across renovations, adaptive reuse, restorations, and historic preservation, we have a long record of bringing new life to existing buildings. Carefully evaluating existing conditions, we design to optimize performance, honor historic context, and minimize embodied carbon. We update existing buildings to perform to 21st century standards.

We have a long record of working in historically significant environments—including buildings registered as historic landmarks and structures in historic districts. Our work honors the historic materials, forms, and cultural narratives even as we reintroduce them with renewed vitality and purpose. In addition to design services, we guide clients through the complex process of approving changes to historic buildings.

Our studio integrates architecture and interior design, ensuring our clients benefit from cohesive environments. Services include space planning, finish selection, lighting design, and custom furniture. With an eye toward wellness and comfort, our interiors are defined by how they feel: warm, purposeful, and intuitively designed.

Sustainability is foundational to our work. We design buildings that reduce energy consumption, optimize daylight, improve air quality, and prioritize low-impact materials. We integrate this into our design process, guiding our clients through decision-making processes related to sustainability.

We work with institutions, municipalities, government agencies, and organizations to translate long-term goals into clear spatial frameworks. These masterplans bring clarity and coherence to complex organizations, defining how space can support and catalyze growth and change.

We provide expertise through all phases of pre-design services—including programming. Together with our clients, we lead this early collaboration to establish frameworks that clarify design goals and needs assessments. This consensus-building process helps clients define criteria for success in the design process that follows.

Drawing from decades of experience designing and delivering complex projects, we lead feasibility studies for clients, clarifying the technical, financial, spatial, and code-related parameters associated with a project. These studies help our clients make informed decisions grounded in clear data.
