Our
Mission

Our mission is to provide sound advice and quality design solutions for our clients' most unique architectural challenges.  We believe that the success of any project is achieved through open communication between the client and design team.  We begin every project by listening to the client's individual needs and obtaining a thorough understanding of their project goals.  We deliver sustainable solutions through a whole-building design approach that encourages a collaborative, integrated design process.

Our Work

"I am very happy with the work STOA did on the Tiger Point Community Center. They took the needs of the community and user groups, through meetings in the community, and incorporated that into the design of the facility. We have received lots of positive feedback about the community center and ancillary structures."
