Life as a small architectural firm

As a small architectural firm, we have to stay flexible and have a wide understanding of building types. We work with lots of clients with the common characteristic between them is that everything we do is custom. How we approach the project, what we design, how we deliver information is all custom to what our client needs and wants. That has led to some wonderful opportunities in many places across our area.
