History

Established in 1996.

Montana raised, I have been design custom homes & light commercial, both high end & median projects from Alaska to Northern Mexico. Winner of design competitions in San Diego, I attended Arizona State University for Architecture & Structural Engineering prior to a 2 year internship. From Flagstaff, the first design company quickly grew into Prescott & Scottsdale. Residential: monolithic dome, straw bail, advanced framing, log homes, SIPs, ICFs, masonry, concrete and included designs for both passive and collective solar. Commercial: salon/day spas, a fine dining, office, TAs, townhomes, fast food, and currently the historic Hennessy Building in Butte. I built custom homes as well as spec homes. A designer should have hands-on building experience in order to proficiently produce construction documents for others to build from. AZ facility was a teaching facility, providing education & well paying jobs; helped develop Flagstaff's permit and standards emulated by surrounding areas.

Meet the Business Owner: Mark F.

I was raised in Montana, but left for Southern California after High School to fly for my Grandfather's aviation business & wanted to fly Tomcats. After an engine failure forced me to set a plane down in the trees, I was unable to pass a military flight physical. Introduced to Architecture, I found a new calling.
