Architects & Firms

“The idea that we want to touch the Earth as lightly as possible, no matter the scale of the building, has been a key focus of ours for 40 years. Sheltering habitats and nurturing all life is really what drives us forward. We think architecture should intrinsically connect us and conserve nature to bring the outdoors in.”
- David Lake
