All
clients are entitled to well designed projects that fill their
functional needs while maintaining design integrity.
A building design should be the product of constant awareness
of new ideas and concepts and a continuing search for better
or more practical solutions to any problem.
Each project must be a credit to our client's values.
It must reflect individuality where there is an appropriate
balance between form and function while integrating budget and
time parameters as well.
We strive to be highly creative, innovative and diversified
and to approach every project with the understanding that as
we listen to you, we work together to meet your objectives.
Each
project demands a fresh and unique approach; we do not restrict
ourselves to any specific design styles.
If a design can satisfy the many unique combinations of design
criteria, it will be both successful and satisfying.

HOWELL GILMORE ASSOCIATES INC
is a proud member of the United States Green Building Council.
This membership reflects our firm's dedication to recognizing
the value of the environment in our design process. We view
ecological sustainability as an outgrowth of the work of our
founder, Alden B. Dow, and his philosophy of integrating site
and building into a harmonious balance. Our ever increasing
experience and training serves to provide our clients with a
team grounded in extensive knowledge and dedication to sustainable
design. Development of our new office building and its site,
as a case study in our pursuit of ecologically sustainable and
low environmental impact design, demonstrates our duty to lead
by example. It will also stand as a learning tool for, and open
to, the community.
