PEOPLE, CULTURE AND LIGHT
People, culture, and light are our primary concerns. Good architecture is measured by its adaptability and response to its environment, social life, the people who use it, and the light that fills it.
Our architecture is for people, all people. We want the spaces we design to promote social interaction and set the stage for living without barriers. In this sense, we are not married to any one style; we believe in the power of design tailored to need, desire, and space. Our philosophy, architecture, simply frames the light both literally and metaphorically. Manipulating it is our starting point for finding elegant answers to our clients' questions. This way, we never forsake beauty in our quest for functionality and pragmatism.
Environmental, social, and economic issues are integral to our process. This mindset fosters collaboration with our design team, clients, investors, stakeholders, and, of course, end users.
