We create spatial and material situations that engage and inspire people. Our process first involves an intense exploration, or unpacking, of the existing physical and cultural characteristics of a place. With this groundwork, we collaborate with our clients to uncover the root of their mission and their program. We continue our dialogue with the client and our interpretation of the program and site through a rigorous examination of the spatial and material possibilities of a project. We search for the most compelling combinations of spatial arrangements, materials, forms, and techniques that simply and gracefully express our mutual design intent.
