• At the end of the day, all we do is aimed at meeting the spatial needs of people like yourself.
  • We’re no know-it-alls, but believe you’ll find our listening and questioning skills more valuable than an endless repository of answers.
  • We're not building designers. We're designers building. And what we like to build best are useful fabrications that make a real difference in people's lives.
  • On our worksite, the hand that draws the line also swings the hammer.
  • We love making great architecture, not just designing it.
  • Speed is from the devil! We'd much rather work slowly than ever compromise quality or affordability.
  • We love making great architecture, not just designing it.
  • Placetailor is unusual. So are you. Let's talk.
  • For us, design/build is more than a project delivery method - it's a way of life.
  • We're skilled and thoughtful generalists – eager to take on any project that aims to improve the connection between people and place.
  • We work unhurriedly, one project at a time, so you get our undivided attention while we get to pursue the highest levels of our craft.
  • What sets us apart from our peers is a fiendish attention to detail, a flexible construction approach, and the curious fact that we actually build what we design.
  • We know what words like “Passive House", “thermal bridging”, and “blower door” really mean and we’re not afraid to use them.
  • We envision a city where people go about their lives feeling happy, healthy, and more productive because of their built environment - not in spite of it.
