As architects, builders and developers, we began our practice with the belief that thinking and making were inseparable.  The architectural profession, specifically over the past century, has generated the belief that the art and act of building, while certainly essential to Architecture, is in fact merely but significantly the means by which Architecture presents itself to the world. The construction industry over the last century has divided this making into disparate disciplines aimed at limiting liability and responsibility in the making of architecture. The ironic yet obvious result has been a kind of familial separation of the architect from the art of building. Our work is focused on reestablishing those familial bonds, opening up lines of communication between them, embracing the risk inherent between them rather than limiting it and contributing to a culture of thinking which strengthens the discipline of architecture from within.
