“Here, then, is what I wanted to tell you of my architecture. I created it with courage and idealism, but also with an awareness of the fact that what is important is life, friends and attempting to make this unjust world a better place in which to live.” – Oscar Niemeyer

We thought it was important to put down on paper (or a computer screen) the beliefs that have been at the heart of our work since we began our studio over 10 years ago: why we’re here, where we’re headed, and how we want to go about getting there. We put it on our What’s Inside page here.

We’re excited by the opportunities we have to make a  positive impact on the world – or at least our corner of it here in Southern California – through the built environment. We hope to have you along for the ride.
