Practice

We are an architectural design studio practicing in a broad array of project types and urban scales.

We have a deep interest in how buildings, places, and spaces shape our cities.

We provide intelligent and pragmatic solutions in a rapidly evolving industry and environment; with a critical and collaborative design process underpinned by nuanced experience in project management and extensive knowledge of building construction.

MFDS is committed to both process and product; we believe that approaching every problem with fresh, critical ways of thinking yield the best solutions.

Approach

We approach every project holistically, recognizing that a project is more than its design but rather the successful culmination and execution of incredible efforts from all parties involved.

We strive for a better and sustainable future, and seek to provide solutions large and small in purpose of that goal. Not every project is a home run in moving the needle of sustainable design and implementation, base hits are better than batting zero. Whether small steps or giant leaps, we work with clients and stakeholders to provide the most thoughtful built intervention within project constraints.

We look for smart and strategic moves and designs that provide maximum impact for minimal cost – every budget, every community, and every project is important.

Team

We are hands-on designers that lead and collaborate with other like-minded professionals, with a shared commitment to providing quality, sustainable, and beautiful projects and products.
