r(+) is an Architecture, Design, and Development practice providing full architectural services for residential and non-residential projects, high performance building design, and furniture, object, and graphic design.
We are a think-tank for business and property development: generating ideas for successful utilization of buildings, spaces, and properties through strategies that connect buildings, brands, and people.
We are more than architects because successful projects are more than buildings.

We are more than architects because successful projects are more than buildings.
Collaboration. We believe in intense collaboration
with clients, consultants, and builders; we know that
everyone’s input is essential to a successful project.
To enable this success, we purposefully keep our
office small and nimble, limiting our active projects
in order to fully devote our time and attention to
this collaborative effort. Through our network of
consultants, we assemble project specific teams to
meet the individual needs of every client and project.
Economy. We strive to get the most from the least - to
efficiently use materials and deploy space to maximize
the possibilities of every project. We take advantage
of what is “free” - the sun, the landscape, and the views. Every
project is tailored to its specific site and purpose. We
rigorously test options and ideas to seek innovative,
cost effective, yet beautiful solutions.
High Performance Buildings
r(+) High Performance Buildings are based on Passive House methodology which utilizes highly insulated, thermal bridge free envelopes paired with highly efficient building systems. In combination with our rigorous process to reduce underutlized space, these strategies (which can be applied to both residential and non-residential buildings) result in high performance net-zero ready buildings with minimal energy usage, increased durability, and superior occupant comfort.
