Public

Featured Projects

Sponsored by federal, state, regional or municipal authorities and agencies, public architecture encompasses a wide diversity in building typologies from civic and justice to sports, science and healthcare, all specialty segments of our practice. To these resources, our leadership in the public sector brings an added sensitivity to the social and political dimensions of these environments and the skills necessary to effectively navigate through many constituencies and agendas in their role as a steward and guardian of the public interest.

Our work is as varied as the function and mission of the agencies and institutions we have served. Our civic and justice practice has designed community facilities for safety and law enforcement ; nationally acclaimed federal courthouses; detention and correctional centers for both juvenile and adult offenders. Our work in transportation, health sciences, and education is equally far-ranging and includes large-scale campus and master plans as well as individual projects. Our practice also supports public-private partnerships, drawing upon our established network of financial, real-estate, management and operational resources to meet client objectives.
