Contemporary Regionalism

Am searching for contemporary American architects that have regional- or community-based practices, and are doing distinctive, place-inflected work.

Suggestions?

Second Rick Joy, as well as an Arizona colleague of his, Wendell Burnette.

Lake/Flato is also awesome.

i wasn't sure whether it was possible to be a kentucky architect and be both modern and region-specific - at least not in a recognizable way. but it's possible! recent favorites:

deleon & primmer.

Steven nice stuff.... Seems like they have a fair number of garden/landscape scale projects, if mostly unbuilt.
