A project team can be constituted to offer architectural/engineering design services ranging from house additions to multi-million dollar public facilities. The present office has been established in Bar Harbor Maine in 1983.

We are able to offer, through our office and in conjunction with our team of regular consultants and partnering firms, a comprehensive design service that includes master and site planning, landscape architecture, structural, mechanical and electrical engineering as well as the full range of architectural design service. At the same time, we are able to give our clients the personal and perennial attention of the principal.
Through our base on Mount Desert Island we completed projects throughout the State and are available for projects, that matches our skills and interests, troughout the world.
We have completed Belfast Area Children`s Center and the Gray Public Library as well as the Monroe Fire Station and Town Hall for Clinton. Our sucessfull projects also include two accessibility renovations at the University of Maine`s Orono campus and a learning center in Calais, an Auditorium and Conference Center for the Mount Desert island Biological Laboratory and a new Natural History Museum for the College of the Atlantic.
Our current public work consists of a Child Care Center for the University of Maine at Machias, a master Plan and Diagnostic Center for Kidspeace National Centers in Ellsworth, a Master plan and several buildings for Camp Beach Cliff and the renovation and addition to the Passamaquoddy`s Head Start Facilities.
We have designed numerous residential projects in a variety of architectural styles. Our residential work is driven by the needs and desires of our clients, the site and the context of the bulding and the available budget. Our commitment to find the appropriate residential solution for our clients has resulted in contemporary "solar" designs, traditional shingle style houses and a curvelinear house that is published in Maine Boats and Harbors.
In Maine, the challenge is to create buildings that coexist with traditional architecture without sacrificing the expression of the building`s purpose and philosophy. Our skill in developing appropriate architectural forms for new buildings within the smaller communities in Maine is one area in which our firm has distinguished itself.
