Our Mission
We work to create thoughtful, sustainable, impactful buildings.
Our Vision
As buildings change over the course of their life, their effect on people, the environment, and the community changes too. We have setup a company that understands this evolution and how to make an impact at every turn, from design, construction and renovation through everyday building operations. With each touchpoint we strive for a more sustainable future for the building and the community that surrounds it.
Guiding Principles
In the whirlwind of daily life, it is easy to lose sight of the big picture. We allow these four principles to anchor our professional lives:
Show
Up.
Do what you say you will do. Be present. Face-to-face commitments build relationships; failure to deliver on commitments undoes them. Take time to disconnect. Spend time with your colleagues. Get excited. Be the person everyone wants on their team.
Sense of
Urgency.
Get tasks done, done. Don’t let them linger at 80%. Return phone calls and emails faster than expected. Understand how your work impacts others. Recognize a deliverable that arrives early reduces a client or coworkers’ stress. Think through your priorities. Be relentless. Fight procrastination.
Be
Curious.
Be open and humble. Ask questions. Read. Contemplate problems. Start interesting conversations with our clients, your colleagues and the person next to you on public transit. Curious people thrive in our business. Think critically.
Never Let Them See You Sweat.
Pressure makes diamonds, but let’s be honest; no one cares how diamonds are made. Everyone is busy and stressed – the best make it look easy.
