A practice, deliberately small.

We reached this size in 2019, kept the door closed for a year, and decided to stay. The arithmetic is the whole argument: every project we take on has a principal on it from the first sketch to the last punch list. A practice of thirty would take four times the work and give each project a quarter of the attention, and we would still be the people answering the phone.

Three kinds of work. Residential, for established clients on difficult sites — no additions, no spec houses. Civic and cultural buildings: libraries, museums. And adaptive reuse, which on this coast mostly means warehouses and boathouses.

We work on the islands and the peninsula, which means most sites reach us by ferry. That is not a hardship, it is a design constraint: it shows up in every material list on this site.
