Our experience is diverse but a common thread runs through our projects. We strive to produce quality architecture for our clients through creativity and a passion for excellence. We believe architecture can be uplifting and socially relevant. It should also create a sense of place, not only for the present, but also for future generations, which will inherit what we build today.

We listen to our clients needs and produce solutions through a collaborative team approach to each project. All successful projects require the skills of a multi disciplinary team. Each team member, the owner, architect, consultants, and the construction manager must be in constant communication with each other. In an effort to facilitate this, we have created a proprietary network (intranet) on the World Wide Web for sharing and coordinating project information.

ABA subscribes to the planning tenants as described by the Charter for The New Urbanism, that is to say that cities and town planning should foster and promote a quality of life and sustainability. Our planning experience is unmatched in the area. We believe in the neighborhood model, diversity, and conservation and preservation of our built legacy, which will in turn foster a sense of place and historical perspective. New buildings must integrate with the old and connect to the neighborhood, town, and region in a cohesive plan.

Studies have shown that Americans spend more time in the workplace than with all their family members combined. The creation of innovative, comfortable, and productive workspace is at the core of our practice. Technological and business advancements are changing the nature of work and the needs of the new knowledge worker. We understand this dynamic and integrate these concerns and ideas into your built environment.

ABA can assist or run the project construction for your project. Scheduling, estimating, bid coordination, sub contractor coordination, are all part of our comprehensive services. We will also work with your contractor or Construction Manager to more closely integrate the architectural concept, and more closely monitor the project status.

Our residential work centers on creating houses, and additions, which accommodate the lifestyles of the occupants. We believe houses should express our values and personalities, and add to the quality of life. Careful detailing and a quality of space over the quantity of space is the way we approach each unique assignment.
