W O R K S B U R E A U is a team of talented professionals who believe that our inclusive process and collective ingenuity empowers superior outcomes. Directed by three Partners with complementary strengths, and more than 20 years practice together, we place high value on our open creative culture. Our studio fosters open critique and adaptive agendas, with evolving ideas. Our clients and consultants enjoy transparent relationships as they work with us to reach inspired results. Projects of all scales— local or international— are met with an approach that is conscious of the unique site, context, and needs of each venture.

As lifelong learners we draw from depths of experience; as innovators always asking ‘what is the other question?’ to expand possibilities. We build upon a track record of quality and excellence, with locally, nationally, and internationally acclaimed projects, which stand as catalysts and difference-makers in their communities. Each of these works is an imprint― a record of our active responsibility and care for that commission.

Through our work, and by giving back through outreach and activism, we aspire to extend our reach in the built environment. Committed to education, we continue to promote ongoing learning events within the studio and the professional development of our team. Our team members have served as professors and critics at universities across the country and the globe. It is important not only that our works speak, but that we contribute to a better trajectory for our profession— and our world.
