INNOVA on "Innovation"

Innovation begins with an open mind. Creativity energies are often generated through dynamic collaboration with our clients, expert consultants and often times, people from the community. Our willingness to listen and understand through good communication skills is the foundation upon which creative solutions are built.

We do not believe replication can produce true art. We use the "blank canvas" approach to a given problem. We do not subscribe to what is commonly known as a "Signature style" to building appearance. Each project warrants it's own "Signature." Style is only a result in appearance judged by critics.

We believe building designs need to incorporate the anticipation of "Change." Not only do buildings often encounter changes in ownership in their life cycles, users encounter many changes in their own lifetimes as well. We believe it is the Architect's responsibility to make clients aware of the need to design projects to anticipate changes.
