Paul Murdoch Architects

Through the poetics of sustainable architecture, we design forms, lead processes and invent original project typologies to shape new human activity. We are creative agents of social and environmental change for institutions and communities seeking to improve 21st century life. We have been in business now for twenty years. We are an architectural studio that explores a wide range of project types and scales. We are designers, first and foremost. When faced with a problem, we explore options and design a solution. The process for generating, developing and implementing those solutions requires creative management. Vision does not follow a linear path, but most clients require a planned progression. So we guide. We expand our clients’ expectations through direct inquiry, tough questions and persistence. Our goal is to meet and exceed those expectations by broadening a project’s definition, to fully explore its community of constituents; its ramifications in time; to examine full value for limited resources; to find innovative response to challenges; and to transform a client’s capability to meet 21st century needs. It’s serious stuff, but we enjoy doing it.
