Who We Are
As the firm has grown, the concept of “balance” has come to define our staff. 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 project team members is very short.
Our size ensures responsive service and direct principal involvement on every project. This size creates a climate where young designers work closely with seasoned professionals to gain direct exposure to the project’s nuts and bolts.
