Our design principles revolve around the axis of research and conversation. Through consistent open conversations and all-staff meetings, our firm promotes knowledge sharing and continuous growth amongst employees. We prioritize regular opportunities to present design thinking, communicate lessons learned across project teams, and transparently share how the firm functions.

Office practices aspire to promote each staff member's unique talents, allowing for flexibility in how project teams operate to accommodate different working styles, schedules, and constraints, ultimately increasing efficiency across the office. Staff may elect to join committees that fit their professional or personal interests, such as Sustainability, Preservation, and Marketing, channeling the firm’s innate interests into actionable initiatives.

To further our commitment to professional development, we provide an internal mentorship program which both welcomes newcomers to our firm and prepares seasoned staff for the next level in their careers.

As architects, we understand the importance of a physical space that facilitates harmonious workflow. Our office layout is flexible and open. Seating is based on project teams instead of hierarchy, encouraging collaboration through pin-up boards, and utilizing communal spaces as both work and social gathering spots.

In these ways, our culture is one of regular dialogue, foundational growth, and shared experiences, supporting and encouraging all staff to do their best work.
