Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
30 years
What is your primary product or service?
Smart Architecture
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
Early on, my family purchased a house built during the 40’s with a non-functioning interior. As a “wide–eyed” teenager, I sketched designs and alternates to repurpose spaces. After sitting down with my father to explain these “wonderful” ideas, he smiled and said I could do any one of them, as long as it didn’t cost any money – a first lesson in SMART ARCHITECTURE !
Over the years SMART ARCHITECTURE has evolved many times over. Lessons learned from constructing buildings to repurposing sites, mountainside to beachfront, to grading, utilities, storm water management, orientation and parking - all orchestrated to fit local regulations – with the final cap – fit a budget, have been incorporated into SMART ARCHITECTURE.
As technology and sustainable building science has evolved, SMART ARCHITECTURE has evolved into a scalable and transferable system for all project sizes/types.
