Our website has been updated with recent work that we have completed and are currently working on. We are very proud of the work we have completed with Asbury University and AVOL of Kentucky. We are also very excited to be involved with Woodland Christian Church on their new project.

nectō architecture was founded in 2016 out of a desire to “connect” all elements related to the architectural design process.  As the definition of the word nectō suggests, we strive to seamlessly combine our clients vision with our passion for architecture.  Our design process constantly va...

Great TED talk with Jeanne Gang. "Most people think that architects design buildings and cities, but what we really design is relationships".

We could not agree more, these relationships and connections (necto) that we build are the basis of our professional practice and design philosophy.

Hello facebook!

Over the past year Studio Ives Architecture’s opportunities have continued to grow and evolve, making it clear that a new partnership would be best for our future. After much thought and consideration a new partnership between Dudley Ives and Jay Copley has been created and is named:

nectō | architecture

nectō is Latin for “connection”. This has become our philosophy for both how we approach clients and the professional practice of architecture, most of what we do is about our connections. This idea spans from our client / consultant connections to the designs we create, the impact on their social context and lastly to the attention to detail of how our designs are materially connected. As you will see in the definitions below, the first definition is what we do for our clients and the second definition is what we do for architecture.

Definition:
1. to connect, interweave, unite, relate
2. to devise, compose, produce

We are very excited about this evolution as a firm, and opportunity as architects. We look forward to maintaining our current relationships while dedicated to creating future opportunities for everyone. We feel the possibilities are endless.

We are still located at 310 Old Vine St. in Lexington, KY, please stop by anytime... we love visitors!
