I believe in a design process that is collaborative with the client. My client’s are creative, informed and imaginative. I use my training and experience in the articulation of our designs. I believe in a design approach where the existing architectural character is a starting point for a design that may extend, complement or contrast. Working together with my clients, I respond to each client’s desires, budget, timetable and physical setting. I believe that architecture resonates emotionally, intellectually and viscerally. Our project may be seen as a series of complementary spaces arranged in an intelligent and insightful manner and constructed with a thoughtful use of materials. I believe that design should heighten one’s awareness and experience of the surrounding landscape. Our project provides an opportunity to extend and connect into the landscape – urban, suburban or rural. The complementary needs of privacy and sun-filled environments inform our design. |
