Would you like to join our team?

About Us:
We are a boutique architectural firm based on H Street NE, working on a range of projects from affordable residential projects to commercial and institutional buildings. The common thread is our interest in improving urban life through creative and thoughtful infill projects. Our residential work includes missing middle projects that are include both affordable and market-rate housing, while our commercial portfolio encompasses offices, retail, restaurants, and religious projects.  We seek opportunities for net zero energy and passive house design strategies.  We are selective about the projects we take on and ensure that each opportunity receives ample attention.  Continuous improvement is a core tenet of the firm; we dedicate time each week to solving issues.  We have regular studio pin-ups to collectively improve our work.  We encourage our team to get involved in the community around them and strive for all our staff to become licensed architects.  Additionally, we volunteer our time for worthy causes including an annual Day of Service on MLK Day.
