We are committed to realizing inspiring spaces for people who value where they live, work, play, and learn. Intense collaboration at each step of the design and construction process is key to the remarkable diversity and quality of the office's work. A project's aesthetic is informed by a detailed study of program, context, technology, and budget. The studio shares a commitment to creativity, innovation, sustainability, detail, and materiality.
The firm portfolio includes commercial, residential, and institutional projects that range from master planning to renovations to restorations to new construction. The office is a certified Female Business Enterprise (FBE) at the state level; it also holds Women Business Enterprise (WBE) status in Chicago, its home base. The firm works nationally and abroad yet prides itself on a hands-on approach to each project.
We listen to your needs and concerns, help translate them into a vision, and then assemble the resources to make that vision a reality. We take your project from initial conception through construction administration and occupancy support. Our work begins and ends with you.
ARCHITECTURE
We strive to provide design services tailored to the specific needs and goals of each client and context; the diversity of our work is a clear reflection of this mission. Constants include a collaborative spirit, a methodical design process, and a desire to create spaces that are of their age, inspirational, innovative, responsible and functional.
INTERIORS
The quality of a space is defined not just by its exterior or spatial characteristics but by the most subtle of details. We therefore highly value the relationship of architecture to interior design. Whether handling things in-house or collaborating with an independent interior designer, we aim to create spaces that reflect a common vision.
