In a world where we all circle the fiery sun

With a need for love

What have we become?

Tragedy flows unbound and there’s no place to run

‘Til it’s done

Questions that call to us, we all reflect upon:

Where do we belong? Where do we come from?

Questions that call to us, we all reflect upon

‘Til it’s done  

‘Til it’s done

Carbon pollution is heating up the air

Do we really know? Do we even care?

Acid rain drips on our trees and in our hair

Are you there?

Clock ticking backwards on things we’ve already built

Sons and fathers die, soldiers, daughters killed

Question ain’t “do we have resources to rebuild?”

It’s “do we have the will?”

Perilous dissidence evening up the score

Do we even know what we’re fighting for?

Destinies crippled and thrown about on the floor

When we’re waging war

Questions that call to us, we all reflect upon:

Where do we belong? Where do we come from?

Questions that call to us, we all reflect upon

‘Til it’s done

— D’Angelo [Black Messiah, Till It’s Done (Tutu)]

We humbly believe we do have “the will.” This will is borne from the essential edict of our design philosophy: PEOPLE MATTER. Purely pragmatic and engineered solutions for the built environment that ignore humanity and place are simply unacceptable. We prioritize moving beyond preconceived solutions to craft unique responses which inspire, are wholly appropriate, and specific to each project. Architecture—the tactile manifestation of narratives—serves as a powerful amplifier of societal priorities, beliefs, and aspirations by preserving the past, reiterating the present and signifying the future. Further, our neighborhoods and cities are comprised of the infinite stories and histories of humankind collaged on the spectrum from chaos to calm. 

We aspire to embrace this colorfully complicated kaleidoscope of [his]stories to create and design dynamic and enriching spaces for each community regardless of means, cultural backgrounds, or initial expectations. This approach is rooted in our belief that great and inspired spaces beget great and inspired communities, which ultimately foster a greater and more inspired world. We rely on the communicative power of architecture to unearth, perpetuate, and translate a community’s enduring message into a remarkable, bespoke design. Irrespective of means, we believe in providing bold, transformative, elegant yet meaningful architecture for each building site. This design approach elevates and reinforces community by creating authentic and indelible impressions, while simultaneously awakening nostalgia.

We aspire to EVOKE, ‘til it’s done.
