Our Core Values

The guardrails that guide every decision we make.

Inspiration:

• Raise Expectations of Design.
• Think larger, not just the piece in front of you. How is it a bigger idea?
• illustrate the possibilities. 
• Access your opportunities.

Harmony:

• Accommodate your clients' concerns with your ideas. Collaborate with them.
• Design within cost expectations, and have integrity to show when you have not.
• Create space for both creative space & technical construction ideas.
• Live your life and do not overload. Get exercise, Say something meaningful to your family every day.
• The parts and systems you design work together and support the larger goal. 

Diligence:

• Propose and act with purpose. Move to your goal without finding rabbit holes.
• Do the hard part first. (email about the fee, tell the truth about the budget…etc.)
• Don’t rush to complete a drawing without thinking about the parts. 
• Purse a collaborative Process with your team, both inside and outside the office.

Confidence:

• Trust your experience, training, and abilities. 
• Be clear about where you lack information, but not resolve. 
• Proactively address challenges.
• Turn away work when it does not meet our vision.
• Control your schedule don’t let it control you.
