We are at a juncture in time where the act of sheltering a given activity in many cases does not take advantage of the opportunity to fully engage the user. Given that we spend the majority of our lives indoors, this issue should be of prime concern. If we continue to build in this manner, we are left without appropriate tributes to our daily achievements. As architects, we must be committed to fostering a more responsible approach to design – one that challenges us to create buildings that serve a lasting purpose while remaining mindful of our environment and our natural resources.
It is with these concerns, along with a true desire to shelter the activities unique to our time in the most experiential way, that we at SCHRADERGROUP architecture (SGA) begin our work. We recognize that budget, site, program and schedule are specific to each project, and aim to design unique and cost effective facilities that provide the ser with an architecture that they can experience and enjoy on a daily basis.
