Hard core economist: “Value is the amount of unpriced attributes

contained in each unit of priced attributes. (Leffler)

.

Architectural interpretation: “Value is WOW per square foot.”

We like to hear WOW.

In fact, we thrive on it.

Quality + Value = WOW. You would never tell your spouse, “you merely met minimum requirements” or, “the defects were acceptable.” Not exciting. You shouldn’t have to speak of your buildings that way either.

We all have space. How can we make it more meaningful and connected? Good architecture goes beyond accommodation and introduces delight. There is an energy that has been called frozen poetry.
Architecture is a container. We should enjoy the coffee as well as the cup. It’s not the structure that moves us as much as what it contains. What we build winds up building us. Our buildings should function well and do it delightfully. Each is a portrait of its owner and the core or his public identity.

Providing value goes far beyond the tangible skills of often saving clients more than our fee. It is a consistent commitment. It is combining people power with process power to exceed expectations in satisfying ever changing needs and wants.
