HISTORICALLY-
MINDED
William’s certificate in Historic Preservation was earned under the guidance of former State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) and former Associate Director for Cultural Resources of the National Park Service (NPS), U.S. Department of Interior in Washington, D.C., Janet Snyder Matthews, Ph.D.
ATMOSPHERIC
TRANSPARENCY
Our traditions of passive energy design, open-air environments and atmospheric transparency were adopted from the area’s most prominent postwar architects; Igor B. Polevitzky, FAIA and Alfred Browning Parker, FAIA.
CULTURALLY-
SENSITIVE
We seek to design from a perspective that is culturally-sensitive and historically-minded. Our personal heritage came from William's grandfather working in the City of Coral Gables since 1949. We find merit in not only the buildings we study, but the unique fabric they form and their impact on the people who utilize them.
THE UN-BUILT
ENVIRONMENT
We confront the environmental consciousness emerging in South Florida’s built and un-built Environments with local design techniques developed in the postwar.
