“The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life”  

— William Faulkner

Softly touching the earth, our structures focus views and reinforce moments with large cantilevers and natural materials. Attention to detail creates a tactile experience that provokes intimate moments of contemplation and reflection and reinforces the best aspirations of people. The building and the environment form a symbiotic relationship where both nature and form are enhanced by each other’s presence, where each would be diminished if its companion were removed. Celebrating structure and blurring the boundary between interior and exterior are at the center of our ethos. The architecture is enhanced by the generous use of natural light and honesty in materials. As a studio-based firm, we openly collaborate on all projects, generating the best possible solutions. We spend a lot of time on the site and with our clients. We work closely with local fabricators to develop details. We listen, observe and revise. These practices improve the projects and makes the impact more powerful.
