About us
Our history
Founded by DePasquale, Thompson, and Wilson in 1978.
As a small, locally-owned firm we’re able to build strong, personal ties with our clients in order to provide the made-to-measure design they deserve. We are able to guide them through the design and building process from start to finish and draw upon the deep-rooted experience we have from working in the area for over four decades.
Our clients can expect close collaboration and good communication with the architect and designers throughout the entire job.
