McCathren Associates provides high quality design, strong client service, and years of experience. We have an established record of dependable performance and deliver quality, cost-effective design; on time, and in the budget. Top talent with international experience completes your project quickly, doing it right the first time, while meeting your goals by responding to your unique project requirements.

In a field dominated by rubber-stamp thinking, we offer a refreshing change. We are easier to work with for one simple reason: we start by asking ourselves what would make things work better for you. Not better for us. Sounds obvious enough but, it has a huge impact. When we applied that idea to one client, we halved design/construction time and identified economic opportunities which saved over four times our fee on each of twelve facilities.

We measure value by how quality performs over time. Building successful, long-term relationships demands performance. We have earned our reputation for quality and value by designing innovative spaces which stand the test of time.

We focus on your personal attention and stay on the cutting edge of today's rapid advances in design and production technology. Our staff has extensive experience which enables us to respond to your demanding schedule with cohesive and timely project delivery. Over the years, we positioned our firm to offer nothing less than the highest level of service, quality, cost control, and innovation. We stress creative problem solving, proactive management and coordination, and we pay close attention to client expectations.

McCathren Associates has extensive experience in design and construction with projects in over 122 cities in thirteen U.S. States and three foreign countries. Value of prior construction involvement exceeds 135 million dollars with individual project budgets over 7 million dollars. We've worked with contractors and regulatory entities all over the country. Our services typically cut construction cost and design/construction cycle time. It is not unusual for us to save you several times our fee through our value engineering procedures.

Our work is based on balance: balancing the aesthetic with the practical, cost with value, and time with quality. There is more to time management than ultrafast, more to quality than error free, more to value than inexpensive. Time spent in planning and design saves time and money in construction. Doing it right the first time keeps the project on track. Our quality is the result of high intentions, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution. We work with you toward a common vision of effective design solutions.
