THE STRENGTH OF OUR PRACTICE IS OUR PEOPLE
Founded in 1968, we continue to build on our history of design excellence with a talented group of individuals who share an unwavering commitment to exceptional service and the highest standards of professional practice. We work together in open and flexible studio teams under the leadership of Principals and Associates who have been with the firm, on average, over twenty years. The stability of our senior staff means clients can count on us, personally, to get the job done right and to provide continuity from project to project in rewarding relationships that stand the test of time.
Drawing on our collective education, ingenuity and experience we consistently find cost-effective ways to create remarkable architecture. Our portfolio of work includes office buildings, classrooms, recreation centers, student housing, museums, city halls, urban lofts, hospitals, medical centers, custom homes, parking structures, churches and synagogues, shopping centers, mixed-use developments and interior environments.
The firm, currently ranked among the largest architectural firms in Michigan, is headquartered in Southfield.
