Frequently Asked Questions

  • We are a full-service architectural firm, focusing on residential (single & multifamily), commercial interiors, and cultural projects. We’re based in southwest Washington DC, and offer services for new construction, renovations, and adaptive reuse.

  • Give us a call or send us an email — both are listed on the contact tab. Any inquiries, big or small, are welcomed.

  • We believe our curiosity is a differentiator. Every design commission is unique, with specific conditions and requirements. We ask many questions, listen intently, and we’re humble in our approach — meaning we put our clients’ needs first above any design agendas. Our process is rooted in optimism — sometimes the best design solutions are atypical or unconventional, and sometimes the most beautiful outcomes are a result of embracing a project’s constraints and parameters.

  • You can reach us anytime via phone or email. We aim to respond quickly—usually within one business day.

  • A fee of 15% of construction costs is a good baseline assumption, but every project is different. We first start with understanding your design needs, and structure the most appropriate and efficient fee proposal from there.
