FIRM PROFILE

C2 Design|Architecture brings over 15 years of professional experience in architecture, interior design,

landscape architecture, graphic design, architectural visualization, and construction administration services to

our regional clients. Our diversity is our strength, and has served as the foundation of the company. We

expand our experience by teaming with a broad network of talented and highly skilled design professionals,

each of which is carefully selected for unique qualities and experience specific to each project.

C2 Design|Architecture prides itself in developing and maintaining a good relationship with each client. As

each client is different, so is the design approach for each project. From the site conditions and building

programs, to the array of building materials selected, each project specifically addresses the needs of the client

while exceeding his expectations and keeping within the project budget. Our architectural and design services

uphold the finest quality, and our attention to detail from conceptualization to documentation is unsurpassed.

Most importantly, we strive to engage the client in the design at all phases by producing dynamic renderings

and maintaining open communication throughout the design and construction process.

C2 Design|Architecture provides a broad range of services and has experience among multiple project

markets. As seen on the following pages, our projects have ranged from middle to high end single family

residences to condominium and apartment communities, commercial offices, tenant fit-ups, industrial facilities,

themed restaurants and hotels. Our designs merge classic designs with modern designs, unite the exterior with

the interior, and connect cost with constructability. Our goal is to provide a notable building, which is responsive

to unique circumstances, alongside having a good client relationship.

C2 Design|Architecture is committed to the principles of sustainable design. Our staff consists of LEED

Accredited Professionals, and we recognize the importance of incorporating sustainable ideologies into our

projects. Natural systems and local materials are regularly utilized in our buildings, and our economic and

environmental consciousness is evident in our built designs.
