No building, no matter how beautiful or well detailed, is successful unless it meets your functional needs. We put a premium on the programming and strategic planning phases of the project in an effort to understand your operations as well as you do. Our Strategic Master Planning Process is designed to devote time and energy to pre-design planning in order to build a Knowledge Base about your operations, until our design team has a thorough understanding of your functional needs. 

We listen. There is always more than one solution to a building design challenge - and we work closely with the client to analyze a variety of options as early in the process as possible, until all Stakeholders agree that we have the solution that best meets your operational needs.

No project, no matter how well designed, meets your needs if the cost is too high. Our goal is to balance project scope and quality against your ability to fund the project in a way that provides the highest "bang for your buck". We consider a good design to be one that is efficient, constructable, and creative in fulfilling the programmatic needs of the client - for a reasonable cost.
