A process committed to collaboration and exploration.
It takes three things to make a good project: an interesting context, an interesting site, and an interesting client. Our design process is rooted in a response to the world around us. It’s subtle, intuitive, and involves listening and experience. It requires asking good questions about the site and paying attention to the cues that need to be addressed within the context of the client's wants and needs.
