THE STUDIO
The practice is a collaborative, supportive, energetic and engaging studio. As our projects are often diverse in type, scale and budget, we strive to reflect that diversity in our staff and our collective experiences. We are professionals with backgrounds in the fine arts, graphic design, historic preservation and photography. We are African-American, French-Canadian, Mexican-American, Chinese-American and Belgian. We spend our free time engaging with, and supporting the community, traveling to new cities, raising families, exploring new landscapes, participating in physical activities (climbing, hockey, soccer, swimming, hiking), throwing clay, tasting new foods, and occasionally doing it all together, strengthening our team.
