We collaborate closely with our clients, treating each project as a unique opportunity to explore material and functional ingenuity while meeting their specific goals.  Our process begins with a close reading of a site, whether it be a pre-war brownstone or untouched farmland— exploring the existing conditions as a means of finding inspiration.  Through this sensitivity to context, we strive to create an architecture that is simple yet timeless.
