"My main concern is to make something in which a person sees himself reflected, in which we may claim to see the world, in miniature, and which I can make, as some kind of offering... a gift to the universe."

Christopher Alexander (Architect)

Established in 2001 by Dee Blackburn, studio 1 architects is a practice offering extensive experience in public and institutional projects as well as residential and nonprofit work. We are dedicated to the craft of architecture and to relating the design of individual buildings to the larger community in meaningful and appropriate ways. Projects completed by the firm's designers have been recognized with local, regional, state and national awards. Equally significant is the fact that clients, consultants and contractors consistently speak highly of not only the quality of our design process, but also the thoroughness of our documentation and the efficiency of our administrative skills. The professionalism and care combined with the freshness of the work itself are the primary qualities the firm strives to bring to each project it engages, no matter the size or scope of work.
