..::: Our Team | Meet the President | Firm Background :::..

As we at Perkins Design Associates begin our eighth year of operation, I am struck by the many changes that have occurred during that time. Environmental disasters, global terrorism, and economic uncertainties have affected each of our lives, and have had a profound impact upon our professional responsibilities. Heightened concerns for security, safety, and long-term sustainability have become requirements to address within every community in which we work.

We remain fully committed to providing our clients with outstanding service, creative solutions, and leading edge technology. Our enthusiastic and talented staff has a diverse range of experience and capabilities that can be directed towards a wide variety of projects. We strive to create environments that respect local community character that foster places for human interaction, commerce and living, and that balance economic, environmental, and community values.

I believe that the most important service we provide to our clients is the ability to listen carefully in order to synthesize information gathered into innovative design solutions that achieve return on investment, long-term viability, and community benefit. I am pleased that we are also able to offer our clients strategic planning, public presentation, and design review services.

Our design philosophy continues to be driven by principles derived from our experience and observations of the dynamics of environmental design. We believe places must reflect their unique location within their natural environment, their relationship to regional and local communities, and their special purpose in facilitating human interaction, comfort, and vitality to users. We are committed to achieving our clients’ economic goals while preserving their flexibility to adapt to a constantly changing market place. We emphasize communication as a primary tool for driving the design process.

I am personally excited as well by our recent addition of an office in Fresno, the heart of Central California. It is my hope that this new office, and others to follow, will allow us to serve a broader group of clients, and provide expanded opportunities for our professional staff. As we look forward to these new opportunities and challenges, we remain firmly committed to maintaining our present high standards of excellence, innovation, and effectiveness.

Sincerely,

Steven Perkins
President
Perkins Design Associates
