”She has the ability to keep the client on point and can comfortably guide them through the many stages of project development; she was a key factor to the success of two of our fast track, high profile expansions.“ -Steve S

A close friend said to me “from a seed thought, magnificent structures can evolve” on the occasion of my becoming licensed as an Architect. The quote refers to the seed of a conch shell we found on the beach.
Buildings and physical environments evolve from seed thoughts; they are the ideas of a region, a community, a property owner, a business owner, or an individual. These thoughts combined with the ideas and training of architects, planners, and engineers; develop into two dimensional drawings that describe three dimensional spaces; and ultimately are built as structures.
The wonder in the eye of the community, business owner, property owner, or homeowner is what we we strive to capture when designing sustainable and timeless works of architecture and planning. It is the architect, it is the planner, through listening to the client, who identifies the seed, establishes the team, and harnesses the effort to develop the structure.
The built & physical environment shapes our everyday lives; let’s fill it with wonder.
