Company Profile
|
|
Formed in 1986, John Lawson Architects is
a firm committed to the art of
architecture and the excellence of its
design. The firm was founded on Mr.
Lawson's prior professional experience as
a partner with Mitchell/Giurgola
Architects where his designs received
numerous professional design awards and
were widely published.
JLA's goal is to create a design that will
function practically and provide visual
stimulation and excitement for those who
use the building. In addition to
architectural design, JLA offers expertise
in environmentally-conscious green design,
feasibility studies, master planning,
programming, space planning and interior
design, the latter a specialty of Ms.
Katz.
Another strength of JLA is its ability to
create a design that fits the client's
identity, be it corporate, institutional,
or residential. Not only are the client's
needs evaluated but also the special
characteristics of his identity are
assessed. Such design results from the
careful analysis of site considerations,
selections of building materials, budget,
and the sensitive understanding of scale,
all of which factor into creating an
appropriate architecture. Repeat clients
attest to this skill.
When outside consultants are required to
handle specific technical issues, JLA will
select the best advisors. JLA sees the
life of a project as a close partnership
between client and architect that is
continually stimulated by the fresh
exchange of ideas. The goal of this
exchange is a well designed building. Just
as JLA puts an emphasis on high design
standards, the firm pays close attention
to high standards for construction, from
the initial specification of design
details on working drawings to the quality
execution of those details on site.
