"Public space allows life's theatre to happen - these are the spaces we remember most. Louis Kahn said, "Architecture begins with the making of a room and continues to become a collection of rooms." Whether we're creating an urban room, a room inside a building, or a room between buildings, in our work that public room is the centerpiece of memorable architecture." - Turan Duda

“Pin-ups make our design reviews wholistic because we’re not looking at one element in an isolated way. When team members are focused in one area, they’re not necessarily thinking about the relationships between different parts of the project that could be visually or materially connected. To ensure the project is cohesive, we review detailed vignettes in context with the overall elevations, plans, renderings, and models." - Brendan Beachler, Associate Principal
