ClS Architects understands the importance of whole building design. We have an excellent history of working relationships between various fields resulting in a complete design approach. By taking this approach, our firm is known for little to no change orders throughout construction. As a firm, we stress the importance of an in-depth design approach that incorporates the consultants at early stages of the design in order to produce a well thought out construction document. We are committed to staying current with design and construction methodologies in order to provide an outstanding product.
ClS Architects is made up of a team of talented individuals, committed to creating beautiful, meaningful work. Together we strive to further our shared passions of design, innovation, sustainability, and collaboration. Responsibility is shared throughout our team members, with every member contributing to the design, drafting and development of each project. The principal architect, Charles Silbernagel, is involved on all levels of the design phase, including maintaining the design schedule and reviewing final documents before release to permitting. Every project is assigned a project lead, who serves as the day to day point of contact.
