Our Approach
At DWA, we build homes - homes for families, homes for work, and homes for play. To achieve buildings with
distinctive character, we put a premium on highly personal service. Our most recognized projects are those
that succeed in expressing a client's desires, resulting in architecture with personality, a connection to
the landscape, and a unique functionality.
Our relationship with every new client begins the same way: with the development of a "wish list." We ask
each individual involved in the project to articulate their hopes for the finished building, requesting
that they ignore any perceived limitations or restrictions. We ask our clients to take this leap of
faith because we are confident that we will be able to realize their dreams with cost-effective,
high-quality design solutions.
We take this approach for several reasons. First, we believe that architecture has the power to achieve
seemingly conflicting goals with a single thoughtful design. Second, we believe that a project should
take into account a client's immediate and future goals so as to maximize cost-effectiveness and efficiency
for the life of the building. Finally, we believe that if a client's goals and aspirations are compromised
before a project has even begun, we will have missed the opportunity to create the ideal building for them.
We measure our quality and effectiveness by our clients' satisfaction, and attribute our success to the
clear and steadfast vision we help our clients achieve and use as our ultimate guide. These visions are
the result of strong collaboration among the client, our team of caring professionals, and our partnering
consultants and engineers, all of whom see each project to fruition.
We pride ourselves on our personal, methodical approach. The client is our inspiration, exceptional service
is our reputation, and a universally better place to live and work is our goal.
