We have made an effort as professionals to contribute to our society, not only through our architecture, but also as educators.
Our desire is to promote a greater understanding of and involvement in the design and construction process, for our clients, the users of our buildings, and the community. Beyond the normal scope of Architectural services, we often set up on-site displays and schedule on-site working sessions, informational meetings and classes. At school sites in particular, we frequently schedule 1-day classes and demonstrations in design, structures, building systems, and construction, inviting contractors and sub-contractors to speak about their work, and relate what the students are learning to the work of various trades and professions. Together we conduct tours of the construction site so that students may see first-hand the design and construction process at work. |
