Firm Ground Architects & Engineers, Inc.

Introduction: Firm Ground Architects and Engineers, Inc. is an experienced group of architectural, design, engineering and development professionals committed to creating livable and sustainable environments for our clients and their communities. We team with you to study and define the program to create ownership in the process and the end product by all the participants. This partnership provides the strength that diversity of opinion can provide. It gives us a chance to tear apart preconceived ideas and incorporate unexpected insight. Direct, hands-on involvement from the principals of the firm ensures creative solutions that are based on years of experience. We know current trends and keep up with the latest research and technological developments. We maintain a database of articles, research and photographs that allows us to disseminate information to all of our design partners. Firm Ground carefully selects consultants who are well qualified specifically for each project. All of the firms on our team have substantial experience in complex buildings. We are confident that we will assemble a team that works well together. Our working relationships are based on mutual respect for each other's professionalism and ability to communicate well. This respect and communication will enable us to reduce errors and omissions and have a better end product. We have selected a team that we feel can work in the most efficient manner. Firm Ground has architecture, landscape architecture and civil engineering in-house, as well as 3D rendering capabilities, specification writing and interior design. By streamlining the ability to exchange information, we are facilitating the ability to exchange ideas more easily and work more creatively and efficiently. We have collaborative space available so our specialists can utilize workstations in our office to work directly with our design staff face to face. We select consultants based on their many years of experience working together as well as their ability to communicate effectively. This communication component does not limit itself to the internal correspondence of the design team but is equally, if not more importantly, inclusive of the project team. We are confident that our team can design, schedule and lead a project for you and that it will be a project you will be proud of for years to come.
