Design that advances communities forward.
Design for civic spaces is unique in that architecture can play a significant role in promoting local values and contributing what makes a community attractive to residents, workers, and visitors. Durrant understands that these spaces are neighborhood fixtures that enhance the quality of living for area residents while providing opportunities for interaction, learning, and quality time with family and friends.
We recognize the need for public facilities to be developed through an interactive process, with community support and strong leadership and guidance. Acting in a collaborative and interdisciplinary fashion, with all stakeholders, disciplines, and users involved in the design process, our process is inclusive and collaborative. We fold key people into the design process from start to finish. Open and focused communication is the tool that makes the difference. We’ll explore multiple options simultaneously, choosing the best solution together.
Durrant understands that your projects often face different financial challenges. We are knowledgeable of various funding opportunities and requirements to help you acquire needed capital.
Whether you’re building a senior center, a city library, or a national museum, our emphasis is on close client partnerships and solving complex design problems. Overall, the knowledge, discipline, and creativity we bring to your project can be evaluated and judged by our teams’ past record of successful, cost-effective public spaces.
Your goals become our goals, your vision—our inspiration.
