Who We Are
As the firm has grown, the concept of “balance” has come to define its staff. Due to its work diversity, Eckenhoff Saunders architects and designers are versatile and highly experienced in every aspect of realizing a building. Moreover, as a mid-sized firm, the distance between clients and individual members of a project team is very short.
Our size ensures responsive service and direct principal involvement on every project. This creates a climate in which young designers work closely with seasoned professionals to gain direct exposure to the nuts and bolts of a project.
