We are committed to creating spaces that strengthen communities and enhance daily lives. Since 1959, our practice has been evolving at the intersection of design and implementation, fostering a team of innovators and problem-solvers who care deeply about the impact of the work we do.

Human Centered Design is about cultivating deep empathy for the people we’re designing with and for. In theory, this means that all problem solving puts the participants’ holistic needs first. In practice, this means treating people with dignity, compassion and respect, and honoring that through the design process.

It’s easy to say, but very nuanced to do in a practice as complex as architecture.

We are committed to doing it well and to constantly be raising the bar of our industry to do better because of a deeply held sense of responsibility to our communities and to the people impacted by our work.
