Established in 2006, Shands Studio practices architecture with a commitment to design integrity and expression of place. We aim to create buildings that enrich one’s experience and celebrate the inherent qualities of a site. Clarity of ideas and purpose provide a cohesive approach, evolving from the development of space to carefully resolved details. Sustainability is integral to the design process with mindful consideration of resource conservation, energy efficiency and environmental impact. We are dedicated to achieving thoughtful architecture through innovation and craft.
These guiding principles are applicable to projects of any scale or program. Working collaboratively with our clients and consultants allows for informed decisions while finding opportunities within the challenges. Similarly, we strive for open communication with the fabricators and builders to create continuity from drawings through construction.
