  OUR LOCAL GEOGRAPHY (however, we design projects ALL over the USA  and the World):
  At the south end of the Appalachian chain of mountains are the  Blue Ridge Mountains. Several small mountain villages are located  in that area. We are a residential architect there: we are  one of a handful of Cashiers NC architects. Down US Highway 64  east, is Lake Toxaway. Not quite to far to the east, coming  toward Cashiers, is Sapphire. In the other direction (west on 64)  is Highlands NC.
    Going back in the other direction on 64 (farther east) , is    Brevard. Down in South Carolina, lies Seneca SC, and a way to    the west down there, is Greenville. A little closer to    Asheville, along 64, is Mills River. There is a small town    between Lake Toxaway and Asheville : Etowah.  
    There is more, much more in the Western North Carolina    mountains and in the Piedmont: In the larger city a bit more    east (a big city to us village-dwellers), is Asheville. A ways    to the far east is the even larger metropolitan area: Charlotte    NC. We may design anything there, as we are also commercial    architects and our senior staff architect, Rand Soellner    AIA/NCARB, was co-project manager, co-designer and detailer on    a significant mid-rise condominium housing project in metro    Charlotte, North Carolina.  
    And there are still more WNC places: To the north of Cashiers    lies Cullowhee. To the NW is Franklin. East of this is Sylva,    North Carolina. To the northeast of Cashiers is Waynesville. To    the northeast of that is Canton. Just south of Asheville is    Fairview, NC. Beyond Asheville lies Mount Mitchell.  
    We are available to provide residential design services in the    following places: Moscow, Paris, the Cliffs, Cashiers NC,    Highlands. We also work as: Old Edwards Club Architects,    Highlands Cove Architects and Luxury Residential Architects.

    Between Sunday, May 17 and Monday, May 18 projects developed    under the second phase of Espacios de Paz(Spaces of Peace)    were inaugurated in five cities across Venezuela. A genuine exercise in participative    design, 20 Latin American architecture groups worked for five    weeks with communities in neighborhoods dominated by violence,    high dropout rates and crime to convert deteriorated and    abandoned spaces into public places of peace.  
    For each project, four groups of young architects worked    together to carry outa process of dialogue, research,    design, and ultimatelythe construction of either an    athletic, social or educational facility to be administrated by    the local community. Espacios de    Paz is coordinated by the local office of PICO    Estudio, with guidance from public institutions and under    the leadership of Isis Ochoa, the High Presidential    Commissioner for Peace and Life.  
    ArchDaily en Espaol Editors, Nicols Valencia M.and Jos Toms Franco, were invited by PICO Estudio to document and view the    five projects in their final phase of construction and speak    with the architects and community representatives about the    development of the projects and some of the challenges faced in    the process.  
    Learn more about each of thefive projects after the    break.

      Jordan Goldstein, managing director and principal of one of      the world's top architectural firms, Gensler, became an      architect at age 5. At the time, his parents were house      hunting, and they'd bring him along to see the different      options. After the visits, Goldstein would return to his      Legos  he had buckets of them  and recreate what he had      seen. "Ever since that point, I was looking for the quickest      path to becoming an architect and building things," he writes      in an email.    
      Architects are perhaps a rare blend of creativity and      practicality. They are artists with grounding in reality.      After all, most Lego lovers will tell you that a firm      foundation is a necessary component in making a soaring      skyscraper. Architects use their skills in design,      engineering, managing and coordinating to create      aesthetically pleasing and safe buildings that serve a      purpose. They're artists, but instead of a canvas, they have      cities, parks, college campuses and more to display their      work. And their masterpieces are the shops, libraries, office      buildings and grocery stores we frequent all the time.      Architects are involved at each step of a project, from the      initial planning sessions to the ribbon-cutting ceremonies.    
      One of the biggest advances in the architecture field is      digital design and building information modeling, Goldstein      writes. "3D models are now layered with information and the      models themselves are actually databases on the design that      can be utilized for construction, facility management, and      energy management," he explains. "With the growing usage of      digital printing, architects are quickly able to study the 3D      implications of design ideas and mature the project. The      understanding of computational design is allowing architects      to move right from design to fabrication, leaping over the      more conventional aspects of the design process and expedite      construction."    
      The economy is recovering, which is good news for everyone,      but it's especially good for architects, who took a beating      between 2009 and 2011. Job losses have leveled off      considerably, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics has      predicted 17.3 percent employment growth between 2012 and      2022. Combine these projections with a low unemployment rate,      just 4.7 percent, and the job outlook for architects appears      to be very solid.    
      The BLS reports the median annual wage for architects is up      slightly from $73,090 in 2012 to $74,110 in 2013. The      best-paid 10 percent in the profession made approximately      $119,370, while the bottom 10 percent made approximately      $44,930. The metropolitan areas of Bridgeport, Connecticut;      Lancaster, Pennsylvania; and Santa Cruz, California, pay      their architects the best.    
      To practice in most states, architects will need to graduate      from one of the 123 schools of architecture that are      accredited by the National      Architectural Accrediting Board. Students can enroll in a      five-year Bachelor of Architecture program. Alternatively, if      they have an undergraduate degree in a different field, they      can get a master's degree that can take anywhere from one to      five years to complete. Upon graduation, students must      complete a training period or internship, which typically      takes three or more years to complete. Only after the      training period is complete are they eligible to sit for the      Architect Registration Exam. After passing this exam,      architects will have to obtain a state-specific license. And      to keep licensure in most states, architects will have to      keep up with continuing education standards.    
      After graduating from school, architects are required to      undergo a several-year training period or internship. Many      times, these internships can lead to jobs  or at the very      least, networking opportunities. Once their foot is in the      door, architects need to show employers that they're team      players. "Architecture is not a solo art and is instead a      collaborative profession that benefits from diverse points of      view," Goldstein writes. "At Gensler, the collaborative      approach to design is integral to everything we do."      Architects looking to impress employers should also showcase      their communication skills, since architects will be      conversing with clients and colleagues on a regular basis.

    All of the original members of Architects were intently    involved with the Brighton music scene due them all growing up    in the surrounding areas. They cross several genres with their    technical music, the primary influences have been noted as    ranging through artists from hardcore punk and heavy metal    music with Meshuggah, Converge, The Dillinger Escape Plan,    Gojira and Thrice all noted as influencers. Sam Carter who was    a drummer and studied drums at the Brighton Institute of Modern    Music before joining Architects, had performed in multiple    local bands, one of which had the opportunity of supporting    Enter Shikari. Architects was born in 2004 when Drummer Dan    Searle and his twin brother Guitarist Tom Searle began the    project under the name Counting Days, until the addition of    Matt Johnson, guitarist Tim Hillier-Brook and Tim Lucas on bass    guitar continued as Architects.  
    After the release of their debut album Nightmares in May of    2006, the band were offered the opportunity to tour with    several prolific artists including Beecher and Bring Me The    Horizon, yet due to the age of the members at the time they had    to book several weeks off college in order to continue their    touring schedule. After their first album, Architects sound was    forced to change dramatically due to the departure of lead    vocalist Matt Johnson He was replaced by local musician Sam    Carter who had been described by Searle as an 'easy choice'.    After their next album 'Ruin' which took them on large headline    tours in both the UK and the US they revealed they had been    signed to Century Media Records for a three album deal. The    first release was 'Hollow Crown' which made the first dent on    the UK charts, placing it at #117 and was promoted with the    band completing a 19 date headline tour of the United Kingdom    before supporting Parkway Drive in Australia.  
    Their next album 'The Here and Now' was released in 2010 and    saw the band's sound following a more commercial direction,    with sales figures reflecting this as they charted at #57 in    the UK, a substantial gain compared to its predecessor. Critics    enjoyed the album, but fans were not impressed with the    departure from the heavier, more technical sound they had first    been attracted to. They slowly began to remedy this with their    next releases, returning to the music they were first inspired    to make, the outcomes were greatly rewarded as the 2014 release    'Lost Forever//Lost Together' saw them crack the top 20 of the    UK and Australian album charts whilst making their first dent    on the US billboard.

Architects Overview        
      Almost three times the proportion for all occupations, 21      percent, of architects are self-employed. In order to obtain      a license, architects must earn a professional degree in      architecture, have at least 3 years of work, training and      passing all divisions of the Architect Registration      Examination. Competition is keen for this career, especially      for employment in the most prestigious firms.    
      Architects are responsible for designing the places that      people need in order to live, play, work, learn, meet,      worship, shop, meet and eat. All are licensed professionals      trained in the science and art of designing buildings. It is      their responsibility to develop concepts for structures and      then go on to turn those concepts into plans and images.    
      In addition to the general look of the building, architects      also must take into consideration factors that will make the      building functional, secure and economical and fits the needs      of the people who use them. They may be involved in all      phases of a construction project. Their responsibilities      require certain skills such as engineering, designing,      supervising, managing and communicating with builders and      clients. Persuasive skills are also helpful, as architects      need to clearly communicate their visions.    
      With a client, the architect will discuss all requirements,      objectives and budget of the projects. Sometimes, architects      provide a variety of predesign services, including selecting      a site, preparing cost analysis and land-use studies,      specifying the requirements the design must meet and      conducting feasibility and environmental impact studies.    
      After architects discuss and agree on a proposal, they      develop the final construction plans that demonstrate details      of construction and the buildings appearance. They also must      complete drawings of structural systems, such as heating, air      conditioning, electrical systems, plumbing and communications      systems. In some cases, the plans will include building      materials and interior furnishings. Architects are required      to follow zoning laws, building codes, fire regulations and      various other ordinances, like requiring easy access for      people who are disabled. Using the traditional paper and      pencil for creating design and construction papers has been      replaced by computer-aided designing and drafting (CADD) and      building information modeling (BIM) technology. Often,      architects are required to make continual revisions based on      the clients needs and budget constraints.    
      Sometimes, architects assist clients in hiring a construction      crew and negotiating their contracts. They may visit building      sites to ensure that contractors are following the design,      using the specified materials, adhering to the schedule and      performing quality work. The job is only complete when all      construction is finished, construction costs are paid and      mandatory tests are conducted.    
      Collaboration is a large aspect to this career, as a great      deal of time is spent coordinating information with urban      planners, engineers, landscape      architects, interior      designers and other professionals. Some specialize in one      phase of work, while others specialize in designing one type      of building, such as schools, housing or hospitals. Plan and      predesign services or construction management are two other      specializations.    
      Architects spend a lot of time in comfortable offices      developing reports and drawings, communicating with clients      and working with other architects and engineers. Travel is      sometimes required in order to oversee the progress of a      project. Approximately 1 in 5 architects work longer than 50      hours per week. Long hours and work during nights and      weekends is necessary to meet deadlines.    
      In most states it is required that architects hold a      professional degree in architecture from one of the 117      schools of      architecture with degree programs accredited by the      National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB). Graduation      from a non-accredited program may be sufficient for      entry-level jobs in some states.    
      Students with no architectural background can earn their      professional degree through a 5-year       Bachelor of Architecture degree program. Others decide to      earn a       masters degree after completing a bachelors degree in a      different field. This can take as long as five years or as      little as one year, depending on the extent of previous      training in architecture.    
      Educational background and preference determine which type of      degree to pursue. Those who are sure of their career choice      should pursue the 5-year professional degree as this will      allow them the fastest entrance into employment. Most      programs include courses on building design with an emphasis      on CADD, architectural history and theory, technology,      structures, construction methods, math, physical sciences,      professional practice and liberal arts.    
      Postprofessional degrees are also offered to those who      already have a bachelors or masters in architecture or other      areas. Continuing education beyond the professional degree in      not mandatory, but it is encouraged in order to learn      teaching, research or other specialties.    
      Graduates are required by all State registration boards to      have at least three years of a training period before they      are allowed to take a licensing exam. The Intern Development      Program, a program of the American Institute of Architects      and the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards      (NCARB) is the standard for State trainings. These standards      require board training from under the supervision of a      licensed architect. Completing an internship during school      might count towards part of the three year training period.    
      Between graduation and licensure, graduates usually work in      the field under the supervision of a license architect. In      order to become licensed, a graduate must complete a period      of practical training and pass all the divisions of the      Architect Registration Examination.    
      Continuing education is also required in some states in order      to keep a license. These requirements vary depending on the      State, but often involve completing a certain number of      credits biennially or annually through formal university      classes, workshops, self-study courses, conferences or other      sources.    
      Good communication is key to this career, as architects must      communicate their vision to clients and builders. Artistic      and drawing ability is helpful, but understanding spatial      relationships and visual orientation are more important.      Creativity and the ability to work independently and as part      of a team are also essential qualities. In order to      successfully use CADD programs, computer skills are also      required.    
      The National Council of Architectural Registration Boards      offers architectural certification. Only after an independent      verification of the applicants educational transcripts,      professional references and employment record is      certification awarded. A growing number of architects are      pursing certification because it makes it easier to become      licensed across States, as it is the primary requirement.    
      Advancement in this career may lead to more complex      assignments or taking a managerial position. Eventually, some      architects become partners in a firm. Still, 21 percent go on      to establish their own practices.

      Employment for architects is projected to increase by 16      percent in the next decade, which is faster than average for      all occupations. These openings will be due to a growing      population in the Sunbelt States, the need for more      healthcare facilities as baby boomers retire, as well as more      educational facilities.    
      It has become common practice for architecture companies to      outsource the drafting of construction documents for      large-scale residential and commercial projects to      architecture firms oversees. This continuing trend has a      negative impact on employment growth for lower-level interns      and architects who would normally be assigned to these      projects.    
      Employment openings at architectural firms will also be due      to workers who transfer to other careers or retire.      Competition for entry-level positions is to be expected as a      large number of students are graduating with an architectural      degree. Internships and the ability to distinguish themselves      from others with their creativity will help individuals gain      employment.    
      The knowledge of green design, or sustainable design, is a      growing demand. Concerns about the environment and rising      energy costs have led more new buildings to be built green.    
      Emplyoment for architects is directly related to the activity      of the construction industry. Employment is also location      specific, as some parts of the country will not need new      buildings or structures.    
      The median annual wage of wage-and-salary architects is      $70,320. The highest 10 percent earn more than $119,220,      while the lowest 10 percent earn less than $41,320. The      middle 50 percent earn between $51,480 and $91,870.      Architects beginning their internships should expect to earn      significantly less.    
      While an architect is attempting to establish their own      practice, they may go through a period when their expenses      outweigh their income. Changing business conditions may cause      the earnings of partners in established firms to fluctuate.    
      Often, firms will pay fees and tuition for employees who      continue their education.    
          On average, Architects earn $72,700 per year.

        Located in the San Juan Islands of Washington State, the 10        acre site contrasts between gently rolling fields that        abruptly terminate in a 100-foot-high bluff that drops to        the waters edge below.      
        Set in historic Greenwich Village, the residence is        composed of two low buildings, originally one was a metal        shop and the other a garage.      
        This site-built home is situated on a sloped wooded lot        overlooking Sagamore Lake in upstate New York...      
        The Port Ludlow Residence is a compact, 2400 SF modern        house located on a wooded waterfront property at the north        end of the Hood Canal, a long, fjord-like arm of western        Puget Sound...      
        The owners of this waterfront home asked DeForest        Architects to design a welcoming modern home with a        seamless connection between indoors and out...      
        Located between the Atlantic Ocean and a freshwater pond,        this residence is for an adventurous couple and their four        sons.      
        Perched on a hilltop in a suburban neighborhood, DeForest        Architects designed this ground-up remodel to take full        advantage of light and views while maintaining privacy from        close-in neighbors.
