OUR TEAM						OUR PHILOSOPHY
	Mark Travers Principal & Founder 1988 Education BA Architecture University of Oregon MSC University of London Attended Architectural Assoc., London, England Registration Washington #5130 California #C18547 Oregon #3831 NCARB #36790						Architecture is a complex business requiring the orchestration of many skills and techniques, so it's easy to lose sight of the goal: Design excellence. This is a well worn phrase in the business, but what exactly does it mean? A well designed building is not something an architect can generate on his/her own. It requires the active participation of a responsive client and an array of specialized skills brought to the project in the form an appropriate team of consultants. A well designed building cannot be achieved without immense effort and commitment from all of the members of the team. The collaboration of a sympathetic and responsive team, makes all the difference. It is the architect's talent and vision that allows the team to do their best work for the owner and the general public. Ultimately time, space and money, are the variables that we as team manipulate on a daily basis. Naturally the owner is a key figure within the context of the team. In summary, each project offers limitations and opportunities. It is always our intention and responsibility to create the most lyrical and elegant solution possible within the constraints of our available resources. We would be pleased to have the opportunity to be of service.
