Dowd Architecture Inc is an intentionally small firm providing a full range of architectural and planning services to clients in the Pacific Northwest. Our focus has always been to serve single-family residential clients. We have also designed many award-winning commercial and multi-family projects. Our projects range from small alterations to large new houses and buildings, with construction budgets ranging from a few thousand to millions of dollars. Many of our projects have been published regionally and nationally. We enjoy working on projects of all sizes, types and budgets.We do not have a set "style". Rather, our projects are distinguishable by their sensitivity to client needs and budgets, and appropriateness to their settings.We tailor our work to best suit each client's needs and budget. Some clients request our involvement in every aspect of their projects ; others need only limited architectural services. Our goal is to help make every project the best it can be for our clients.
We design beautiful and sustainable places that bring people together in community. With an approach that explores new creative territories, we remain as accessible as possible. We are absolutely committed to sustainability, while respecting the needs and priorities of all the individuals, families, and communities with whom we work and play. Communitecture is a full service design firm for commercial and residential projects, typically leading projects from the conceptual design stage through construction. We believe in making our services accessible to projects which push the envelope in terms of ecological design or community building. Our work often includes public processes to involve communities in design and decision-making for public place-making projects and individual buildings. This process can often involve public presentations and educational workshops.
