OUR FIRM
Architecture isn’t just about a building. Rather, it’s about a creative process that moves from an abstract notion to a tangible outcome. In between come brainstorms, decisions, revisions, and a whole lot of dust. And at Sturman Architects you get something more sincere – a commitment to “partnership”.
Sturman Architects specializes in projects that require sharp attention to detail, whether in the sensitive use of space, the design of unique yet functional floor plans, or the careful choice of materials and finishes. We have earned a reputation as exacting planners and problem solvers, resulting in smooth, cooperative relationships with clients and contractors.
Most of our work is for high-end, single-family residences in Seattle and surrounding areas and includes commercial, high-tech, and tenant improvement projects. Regardless of the project’s size, our goal is always the same – to achieve a timeless design resulting from the optimal merging of functional expectations.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Architecture is a reflection of today’s society, current fashion, and advances in technology. Our job as an architect is to embrace what is modern while creating a timeless design that withstands the test of time.
Architecture is a spatial sculpture – it integrates the topography of the land with exterior form and interior space. The dynamic of this integration is what creates the unique qualities of each project. Ultimately, architecture is about the people who use the area and how they experience the creative balance between the aesthetic and the functional environment.
Residential projects have the added element of emotional attitudes and deeply held values. A successful home design marries all these aspects seamlessly, resulting in well-balanced and inspiring spaces that reflect the client’s ideas and lifestyle.
Our commercial and development work focuses on a balance between high design and budget control.
