Studio Culture

We believe in immediate responsibility and the value of professional growth; from the first day on, we ask our employees to participate fully in a wide variety of approaches to architecture: from videoconferencing with international clients to attending scientific presentations on new sustainable technologies, from focused meetings with project teammates to detail sketching for a new building. Our employees are wide-ranging in skill and focus. Our studio culture celebrates a healthy mix of independent thought and development, collective idea-making, and freedom and structure.

Diversity and Inclusion

Diversity is a foundational component to how we see our practice, the work we create, and the world. As architects, we strive to design inspiring, equitable environments; as employers, we seek to build an inclusive team, drawing inspiration from our differences and learning from what each team member can teach us. We see the world as multicultural and global and believe that understanding how to sensitively and effectively navigate diverse histories, backgrounds, and orientations is critical to our sustainability both as designers and as workers.
