PROBLEMS & POSSIBILITES

PROBLEMS FOR PEOPLE
You'll spend over 80% of your time and energy inside a building, yet most buildings fall short in ways that impact your life...
Wouldn’t you prefer to invest your 80+% in something built to a higher standard?
Most people aren't sure what’s possible or how to attain it - we simply don't know what we don't know.
PROBLEMS FOR PLACE
Does it make sense to purchased real estate with the same one-click-to-buy-it-now way we order takeout?
Most buildings are a generic calculation of square footage divided by rooms, and you just figure out how your furniture might fit. No personality. No sense of place.
Every location has unique potential, and every person a unique perspective.
Shouldn't design be just as distinct?
PROBLEMS FOR THE PLANET
Most buildings are hit with enough rainfall and sunlight to provide water and electricity, yet we depend on corporations and municipalities.
Do you feel secure when your basic needs are provided by systems beyond your control?
Consider the real cost of operations for typical buildings.
Does it concern you that most of the buildings you live, work, and gather in may have a shorter life expectancy than you?
POSSIBILITIES FOR PEOPLE
Your environment impacts attitude and behavior, so your individuality and personality should be evident in the details of your surroundings.
The spaces you invest your time and energy should offer more than shelter. Great design helps you live better, invest yourself fully, without expecting you to change or compromise.
As you look at the places you live, are your environments a conduit through which your values and priorities become tangible?
POSSIBILITIES FOR PLACE
As you reflect, does your setting often stand out as important parts of your memories?
Do you remember being in a room or building, and something about simply being in that space made you feel different?
Has a sanctuary evoked your whisper?
Has your outside voice hit full volume inside an arena?
Are there places where you feel completely at peace?
Has a space ever taken your breath away?
POSSIBILITIES FOR THE PLANET
Well-designed buildings wouldn’t waste any resources, especially not your money.
Every project offers opportunities for an eco-positive approach to be practically impactful. There's no “one size fits all”, and solutions for one situation may be wasted in another. What is universal is the desire for healthy environments indoors and outdoors, and to eliminate waste (especially wasted investments).
If something is worth building or buying, it should be built to last!
