Founded in 1983, we are an award-winning and integrated architecture, planning and urban design firm.  

We provide a humanistic approach to design; viewing our work as a form of community building.  Since our inception, we have positioned ourselves as a fully integrated practice, with planning and architecture expertise.  This integration provides our firm with a depth of “real world” understanding. We know what it takes to build what we plan, and conversely, we know how what we build affects the urban environment.

Led by owner Mark Steele and the managing principals, Steve Miles and Michael Paluso, our firm has successfully completed hundreds of projects within the private and public sector spanning across disciplines - retail, hospitality, residential, planning and civic.  Our talented staff includes AICP Certified Planners, Licensed Project Architects, a Certified Interior Designer, and talented professionals who are engaged in their communities.

Our firm is built on the principle that whether it’s a building we are designing or a plan for a community, it’s only successful if it enhances and supports the lives of people.
