Our lives are spent interacting with the built environment. This environment influences how we live, work and play. Architecture must respond to the human needs of comfort, functionality and security while fostering a sense of well-being. At Chip Webster & Associates (CWA), we ensure that physical, social and budgetary needs are met while creating spaces that surprise, delight and inspire.

Many architectural firms have an identifiable, signature style. We believe that every project is unique and requires a fresh perspective that will reflect the needs and desires of the client. Utilizing an underlying design philosophy rather than a preconceived architectural style, we help bring our clients' visions to life.

Before ever putting pen to paper, we listen carefully to our client's goals and then synthesize these goals with the opportunities of the site, such as access, views, sun angles and topography. We do this while visualizing how people, light, and air will circulate through the structure. Our firm encourages the use of renewable resources and sustainable design.

Creative balance is at the core of our philosophy. Examples of this balance appear throughout the decision making process in areas such as:

•  Detail / Simplicity

•  Quality / Budget

•  Interior / Exterior

•  Project Goals / Resources

At Chip Webster & Associates, we develop unique designs through our comprehensive approach encompassing the desires of the client, the requirements of local agencies and the opportunities of the site. Successful design is the result of close collaboration between architect and client. Relying on effective communication and utilizing the latest technologies, we work together to create meaningful, enjoyable architecture.
