Team

How we creatively & energetically work while winning numerous awards:
Equal cooperation and interdisciplinary exchange are a constant factor in our team-centric approach. The open culture causes our style to vary from project to project. However, our designs can be recognized by thematic and poetic clarity. With Louis overseeing all aspects of the project, we are one team with combined strengths. Architects enjoy working with us, as do clients, artists, engineers and contractors because we listen and are adept at seamless communication. Service is second nature with enthusiasm for new ideas and an open approach to working with others.
