<br />We are an 8-person architectural firm with a competitive advantage in Public Works architectural modernization projects
<br />including: Workplace Safety/Security Enhancements, building additions, renovation/ retrofit, tenant improvements (TI); fagade
<br />improvement projects, and building systems modernization in the $20,000 to $2,000,000 construction cost range. Although we have
<br />completed many new construction projects, this is our industry niche and competitive advantage. We have completed over 2,000
<br />Public Works architectural projects for over 80 local public entities. We have unique expertise in ADA compliance, Parks/ Recreation,
<br />Fire Stations, Police Departments, Community Centers, Libraries, and Civic Center Facilities. We can compete favorably with just
<br />about any other firm on these building types. Our staff expertise and production systems are geared for these types of architectural
<br />modernization and often "messy" renovation projects. We have completed the design of over 400 ADA Compliance renovation
<br />projects, over 30 ADA Transition plans, over 300 Parks/Recreation projects, over 60 Community Centers, over 50 Fire Stations, 12
<br />Police Departments, 15 Security Enhancement projects, and 15 Civic Centers.
