SELECT PROJECTS

Our approach focuses on providing innovative solution-based design services that place the human experience at the center of design in multi-family and mixed-use projects. Ultimately your project will define the experience of its occupants and how it is perceived by the community, as well as being a part of the identity of your organization’s asset portfolio. We keep current on State legislation that promotes development, understand pairing product with financials, technical aspects, and assist in orchestrating the strategic communication outreach program to build advocacy of the project by the community.

Renovation, new construction, and master planning architectural services include projects of all sizes for private developers, nonprofit developers, public entities, and development groups.
