PLA tailors its design process to the client's needs by offering each client two different types of design processes and customizing them as needed. During the all-important listening stage, we aim to understand all we can about the client's requirements and project goals.

This includes interviewing client representatives and key stakeholders and devising a program or wish list that serves as the basis for the design and is referenced as a resource during the design process.For more involved, challenging projects, we offer a four-stage process that is especially well suited for clients who want to dive deeply into their projects and arrive at something unique, original, and comprehensive in design and detail.

Our projects range from small to large but are unique in the special design opportunities they present. We aim to understand all we can about project goals, clients' needs, and the integration of the latest architectonic, ecological and environmental concepts and technologies into the fulfillment of a client's particular project requirements.

Dwelling goes beyond occupying living space. It implies a commitment and connection to a place, people, family, and community. It contributes to forming the identity of residents and their communities. As such, we aim to create dwellings that reflect the very personal qualities of each person, family, and community, and to design places that allow our clients to live their lives in harmony with their aspirations and needs.

PLA believes that the introduction of new and advanced sustainable concepts and technologies offer designers unparalleled opportunities in creatively fusing the technical and performance-based advantages of these new systems with poetic and aesthetic possibilities. Our projects seek to find new ways of seamlessly integrating technology with new creative expressions for shaping built environments.

Since its inception, PLA has worked on urban design projects that build on a site's rich history and ecology. We do so with the aim of making places for people and communities. Central to our award-winning designs is an understanding of the deeply rooted qualities of a place, its landscape, and communities that inhabit a site.
